Thanks Boxplayer, you must have perfect pitch, I’m envious!

I don't have perfect pitch but one of my sons does. It's quite impressive; those that have the gift can walk in off the street and without any reference points at all hum/sing any note in near perfect pitch.
Sadly it's not perfect pitch which is required in transcribing a tune onto paper. I need my keyboard for reference. The procedure appeals to that part of the Scottish character which likes something for free. Besides, it's a good way of becoming familiar with a piece of music; by the the time you've listened to it a few times it begins to sink in.

Another new thing learned today but I’m determined to remain impressed by your gift

Lovely! Snowdrops aren't in bloom in southern Wisconsin yet, but I look forward to playing this when the first one emerges.

Another nice catch Box, this time I’d better keep the transcription to myself for personal use.
