  The manuscript
  
  Compiled around 1812, this is the earliest unpublished collection of Highland vocal and instrumental
  music and unique in that it apparently represents the wide-ranging musical repertory known to Gaelicspeaking
  inhabitants of one Hebridean island, Raasay, including the aristocratic Highland home of
  James MacLeod, laird of Raasay.
