Item Description

The 'James Christie' manuscript attracted attention from Aberdonian bibliophile William Walker in 1918. Letters from Walker and others interested in the musical Christie family are found elsewhere on this site. This note, which Walker glued to the inside of the manuscript, is a list of tunes from the first published collection of Scottish music, Henry Playford's 'Collection of Scots Tunes. 1700', published in London.
