What is the tune ID number?
The number in the column labeled “ID#” is a number I have permanently assigned to each distinct tune. I may abandon use of a particular ID number if I find a better way to index that tune, but I will never reuse that number for a different tune. I provide this number throughout the site to allow you to cite accurately information about particular tunes from this index in your on-line discussions or in your papers and publications (see How should I cite this Web site?).
