| Item Description | Manuscript of a 'New M.S.' strathspey. 'Canty Jeanie' 'Munro' [inserted]. 'Jeanie' was 'Miss Thompson, Violinist, Aberdeen'. In the years since Skinner had written this tune for Jeanie, she married, and became Jeanie Munro. The note [not written by Skinner] reads: 'The above is written in order to familiarise players with the more difficult keys. In B flat major the tune would be less difficult but the general effect would be lessened.' |
