I'm searching for music for a book I'm writing.
It has to be
- In minor keys, including the natural, harmonic and melodic forms
- Diatonic
- Within the compass of one octave
- Fairly short, or at least with the first phrase or two finishing on the tonic so I can use an extract.
- In the public domain.

Either sheet music or recordings would be good; it doesn't really matter as I can transcribe by ear.

Thank you!
