few months ago a famous foreign violinist and com- r poser who had been visiting the bri tish isles frequently during a period of twenty years or so was walking in the streeu of edinburgh when ho

basedrummer but this is virtual ly the meaning of the name of tabor the tabur of the medieval period was a drum the taburer was the man who beat the drum and there were many of them for there were
