The following announcements are from Jack, who is having a little
trouble posting to Scots-L. 

............................................................ 
Two announcements =================

(1) TMSA festival list

The TMSA hasn't managed to get its website updated this year, so I've
OCR'ed their festival list for the rest of the year and put it on my
website <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/>.


(2) My "Old Scottish Flute Music" CD-ROM

This is now available.  Here's a blurb I've posted to other lists about
it:

   As far as I know this is the first collection of Scottish music
   specifically for the flute to be published since 1890, and certainly
   the most wideranging ever.  Virtually none of this music is in print
   anywhere else, much of it comes from manuscripts that have never
   been published or books that are now extremely rare, and much of it
   is *very* different from anything you'll find on any recording.

   9.50 GBP including p&p (cheques or cash only) or the cash equivalent
   of 11 GBP in other currencies (the extra is to allow for airmail). 
   No other methods of payment yet.  See
   <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/flute/> for more.  (PS to that; one of
   my US customers suggested paying by international money order, and
   that will be ok).

I am thinking of holding a "flute ceilidh" ("Fluters' Ball"?  should I
insist on Come Dancing outfits?) to mark the launch, sometime in the
autumn (probably in the function room of the Dean Tavern here in
Newtongrange: a good space, cheap beer and convenient buses back to
Edinburgh).  The idea would be to mix some playing for listening with a
flute-based and fiddle-free scratch ceilidh band playing for dancing (I
will get a caller).  Let me know if you're interested.
