The Braes Of Auchtertyre sheet music

Comparing the three listed scores

All three scores of The Braes Of Auchtertyre record the same opening key signature and 4/4 time, so those details do not distinguish one version from another. Their recorded note counts and durations differ, but those figures describe individual scores and may be inaccurate; compare the actual notation before treating one score as fuller, longer, easier, or more suitable.

Interpreting the James Crockat attribution

Only one score carries a composer credit, reading 'attr. James Crockat 1723'. The abbreviation 'attr.' signals an attribution rather than confirmed authorship, and the other two scores name no composer. Treat the Crockat credit as a lead to verify against an authoritative source, not as a settled statement that he composed the piece.

What the opening key and metre show

The shared opening signature of no sharps or flats and 4/4 time describes how each score begins. It does not confirm the overall key, the character of the piece, the cadence, or that the settings remain identical throughout. Later bars, repeats, and any changes of key or metre need to be checked in the notation.

What to inspect before choosing

Instrumentation and genre are not named for these scores, which appear under the heading 'Misc tunes'. Open the notation to check clefs, ranges, texture, repeats, and whether the setting is a single melodic line or includes accompaniment. Those details will tell you more about how a particular score can be used than the title or recorded length alone.
