Andrew Wighton: Scottish music books
Do you know about the Wighton Centre, Dundee Central Library's historic Scottish music book collection?
Andrew Wighton collected Scottish music books in the mid-19th century, and gifted his collection to the City of Dundee. A specially dedicated Centre has recently been built to house his music and promote Scottish music events.
The Friends of Wighton support the Centre. Find out more here.
(There is also a Wighton Database; but sadly, it's not up and running just now. Watch this space - 'Whittaker' will let you know if (when) it is resurrected. It was a really, REALLY useful resource, so hopefully it won't be down for long.)
