Best enter some monicker into the "From:" text field, such as "DrawingMusic957".

Your channel looks like a lot of work; my kudos for that!

Did you use sound-to-MIDI software, and if so, which one? Anyway, you must have done enough work by hand and ear. A few mistakes and arguable interpretations remain, almost inevitably.

Or have you been working with the players' original sheet music - from which then they took some liberty, which folk musicians are entitled to?

You must be aware of copyright issues; any arrangement of trad. material belongs to the arranger. Also, many tunes and lyrics have known authors, which should be mentioned even if their work is out of copyright.

Many of us find it profitable to study scores, even if we must not use them directly for our own performances.
