Maybe we need a Skinner Project like some of the others, to get all of his tunes into abc form. Of course, there may be copyright problems with some of them. You might take a look at http://www.abdn.ac.uk/scottskinner/, which has scanned images of his handwritten manuscripts. The page at http://www.abdn.ac.uk/scottskinner/music.shtml is the root of this part of the collection. They're quite readable. I'd bet that if we asked them, they would approve of us doing a scholarly abc transcription of the music, and they might even give it a permanent home online. (I could collect them on my site in the meantime.) Maybe I should send them a message suggesting such a project, and see what their reaction might be. And, of course, if anyone posts any Skinner tunes in abc here, I'll be one of the many who would nab them and stick them into my online Skinner directory. Be sure to include a C:J.S.Skinner line, of course, maybe spelled out a bit more if you like.
