Collogue entirely devoted to the William Dixon manuscript, rescued literally 'out of the flames' in 1908 and unearthed again in 1995 by Matt Seattle. The exception collection of bagpipe tunes compiled by William DIXON in the 1730's forms a major landmark in the rediscovery of traditional piping in the Scottish/English borders. www.lps.net
