UNDERSTANDING THE FILENAMES
Example:
BesideSAB3-pBarDbMDJ20190203.mp3
Means:
Beside, for the title
“Beside the Foyle” (and variants ie other lyrics);
SAB3-p, for the three-part
version for soprano, alto, baritone;
Bar for baritone voice
part;
Db for key of D flat
major;
MDJ means recorded by
me, Margaret Dylan Jones.
Then there’s the date in this format: 20190203.
2019 means the year
2019;
02 for the month of
February;
03 on the 3rd. So, 3rd
of February 2019.
.mp3 is a compressed
sound format, playable on almost all devices. You might not see ".mp3"
as file extensions may be hidden on your device.
I wrote the words and music for these arrangements and I hold copyright
in both (registered with APRA), but feel free to distribute the
practice recordings without restriction. Always share the entire
recording including my speaking. I talk a little in the practice
recordings but don't usually recite or sing the lyrics because there are
several versions of the lyrics for each song. These recordings will be
good for all my versions (if they aren't I'll update them).
Please check occasionally
for newer recordings, other lyrics and updates for this work and other
keys and arrangements, plus other editions such as a melody line
edition with chord names. Changes to the music or lyrics may be made
from time to time, and new works added.
See my other music, mostly for piano.
