The British Library The British Library http://sounds.bl.uk/JISC ASR IPR STATUS LIST.xls Dave Townsend interview 1CDR0013904 (copy of C1033/240) Bob and Jacqueline Patten Collection Item notes: Preceded by 'parish notices' by Gordon Ashman. Singing without the dots – Dave Townsend talks briefly about the nature and context of West gallery music. What we are concerned with here is something more than just the spots on the page but what happened to the music in context and how it was performed and the methods used for learning the tunes [Bob Patten mentions the pride with which the Carollers at Odcombe haven’t written down their tunes since 1858]. Method for today’s workshop: words will be handed out but not the tunes, which must be picked up by ear. 1992-04-25 Ironbridge, Shropshire, England, UK English sound Townsend, Dave (speaker, male) Patten, Bob (speaker, male) Patten, Bob Patten, Jacqueline 44100 16 00:05:45 44100 16 00:05:45 44100 16 128 kbps 00:05:45 44100 16 192 kbps
