"Dauney's importance as a scholar rests on his book Ancient Scotish Melodies from a Manuscript of the Reign of James VI (Edinburgh, 1838/R), which consists of a partial transcript of the Skene Manuscript as well as a lengthy 'Dissertation Illustrative of the History of the Music of Scotland' and some historical documents, also transcribed. The manuscript, in mandore tablature, was compiled about 1625 by John Skene of Hallyards, Midlothian. It contains some 115 items of which over half are Scottish native airs, or folksongs, and the rest - Scottish, English, French, Dutch and Italian - comprise ballad tunes, dance tunes and partsong arrangements. . Dauney's transcription was valuable in drawing attention to early, simple versions of such Scottish tunes as The Flowers of the Forest and John Anderson my Jo. . The 'Dissertation', largely concerned with 17th-century music, contains much valuable information and is free of the anecdotal quality of earlier treatises on the subject." W.H. Husk, revised by David Johnson, and Kenneth Elliott in Grove Music Online.
