| Although we are not trained musicologists and make no pretense to the profession, we have tried to apply such professional rigors to this Semantic Abc Web as we have internalized through our own formal and informal education.

| This demands the gathering of as much information as possible about folk pieces to attempt to trace tune families, determine origins, influences and patterns of aural/oral transmittal, and to study individual and regional styles of performance.

| Many musicians, like ourselves, are simply curious about titles, origins, sources and anecdotes regarding the music they play. Who, for example, can resist the urge to know where the title ''Blowzabella'' came from or what it means, or speculating on the motivations for naming a perfectly respectable tune ''Bloody Oul' Hag, is it Tay Ye Want''?

| |
| Knowing the history of the melody we play, or at least to have a sense of its historical and social context, makes the tune 'present' in the here and now, and enhances our rendering of it.

| TTA Navigation: [[Special:UserLogin|Registered users]] can navigate the TTA for information in a number of ways.
| |
| <br>
| |
| <br>
| |
| *'''[[Special:Search|Search]]'''. The Search function is located at the bottom of the SideBar on the left, and can be used to search the entire index for any key word.
| |
| <br>
| |
| *'''[[Category:Tune|Alphabetically by tune title]]'''. Under “The Index” on the SideBar on the left is “All Tunes”. Click on “All Tunes” to open up the list of tune titles in the TTA arranged in alphabetical order, 200 titles to a page. At the top of the page is an alphabetical breakdown that serves as a shortcut to pages. Clicking on any title will bring one to the music and tune fields. Once the tune appears, clicking “Tune Discussion” at the bottom of the page (below the notation) will open up the narrative information on the tune.
| |
| <br>
| |
| *'''[[Special:RunQuery/TuneQuery|Query the Archive]]'''. The “Query the Archive” function under “The Index” in the sidebar can be used to draw down reports from the TTA in either in single items or in a number of combinations. One might, for example, use a single item query to run a report in the TTA for a particular composer/core source. Clicking on the arrow at the right of the bar draws down a list of composer/core sources, or one may be typed in. For example, clicking on “Bill Pigg” and then the “Run Query” tab at the bottom left will result in a list of all compositions listed in the TTA that the Northumbrian piper either composed or is the core source for. Reports may also be run in combinations, as, for example, by selecting “William Marshall” as a composer/core source, “Three Flats” for the number of accidentals, and “Major” for the Key/Mode. This will result in a report of all Eb Major compositions of Scottish fiddler/composer William Marshall that are indexed in the TTA.
| |
| <br>
| |
| *'''[[Theme_Code_Index|Theme Code Index]]'''. All tunes in the TTA have been theme coded <!--[http://tunearch.org/wiki/Theme_Code_Index]--> according to the format successfully employed by Charles Gore in his Scottish Fiddle Index, and by the Folk Archive of North East (FARNE) site. The theme code query can be found in the “Query the Archive” function of the TTA. The easy-to-learn theme coding reduces the first two measures of a melody to numeric codes and is particularly useful in searching for tunes where a title is not known. “Gan Anim” tunes or tunes listed simply as “Jig” or “Reel” in manuscripts may be found by typing the theme code in “Query the Archive”.
| |
| <br> | |
| *'''[[Special:BrowseData/Tune|Drill Down]]'''. Cumulative information about TTA entries can be found in the “Drill Down” under “The Index” in the SideBar on the left.
| |
| <br> | |
| *'''Tune [[Tune_books|Books]]/[[Tune_History_Articles|Magazines]]''' in the TTA can be accessed under “Issues” in the left side bar. These are reproductions of publications for which access has been granted to the TTA by the copyright holder, under the Creative Commons license.
