Miscellaneous manuscripts, n.d.

Consists of five pieces of manuscript music that appear to be settings of poems or popular songs for piano and voice. Only one, "Thou soft flowing Avon," is specifically attributed to Dr. Arne; the rest are unattributed. The copies appear to be in the same unidentified hand, written on lined music paper. None of the copies is dated, but they appear to be 18th or early 19th century.
