About 1760, the Rey. Patrick MacDonald and his brother made a collection of airs which they published, and, though they probably differed a great deal in their written form from the traditional way in which they had been sung for countless generations, they still held much of the wild, simple beauty which no other music has in quite the same degree. In our time Mrs. Kennedy-Fraser has rescued and transcribed many tunes which would soon have been lost and forgotten but for her enthusiasm. 8. 9 Haagen Holenbergh, _Etudes Symphoniques Schumann 8.29 London Philharmonic Orchestra, "Beau Danube" .........
