| Item Description | As a dancing master, Skinner was perfectly placed to write music for his pupils to dance to. He very possibly premiered some of these pieces at the end of term balls or 'assemblies', where pupils, prospective pupils and parents would gather. You can hear part of this melody if you watch the Polka video clip. |
