What the listed scores show

The three listed versions of Braes of Mar share an opening key signature of two sharps, identified in the listings as D major, but they divide between 4/4 and 2/4 openings. No composer is credited; the artist name given is 'Misc tunes'. These details describe the individual scores, not a verified history or authorship of the piece.

Choosing between the versions

If you need a 4/4 opening, two listed versions are titled 'the Braes of Mar' and 'The Braes of Mar'; the 2/4 opening appears on the score titled 'Braes of Mar'. Durations also differ between the listings, but they are approximate and should not be treated as definitive performance times.

Attribution limits

The evidence does not identify a composer, a source collection, or a historical date for Braes of Mar. The listings should not be read as proof that the piece is traditional or that all three versions are the same setting; compare the scores directly if authorship or version identity matters.

Before you choose

The opening key and time signature help narrow the choices, but they do not describe the whole piece. Check the full score for later metre changes, repeats, and any instrumentation markings before deciding whether a version suits your needs.
