| | Irish Traditional Music |
 | | Traditional music comprises two broad categories; instrumental music, which is mostly dance music (reels, jigs, hornpipes, polkas and the like), and the song tradition, which is mostly unaccompanied solo singing. | | | There are many differences within Irish traditional music: the music of West Cork is different from the music of Donegal. | | | Traditional music has always drawn on many influences and sources: for example, the ballroom schottisches and polkas of polite 19th-century society, English music-hall songs, Scottish bagpipe music, and even the music of visiting blackface minstrel troupes. |

| | WHAT IS IRISH TRADITIONAL MUSIC ? |
| | Being oral music, it is in a greater state of fluidity than notation-based music. | | | The bulk of the instrumental music played is fast isometric dance music - jigs, reels and hornpipes for the most part; slower listening pieces composed for an instrument or adapted from song airs form only a small proportion. | | | Irish Traditional Music Archive / Taisce Cheol Dúchais Éireann, 1996. |

| | Irish traditional music currently has the largest and richest collection of music, musicians, and instruments. | | | Irish music generally is played by relatively large groups (in contrast to duets or trios found in Cape Breton music). | | | There is a richness of musical instruments in Irish music compared to Scottish or Cape Breton music. |

| | Ancient Music of Ireland |
| | Religious choral music, war-pipe music, work songs are likely to have been heard by many ears. | | | This kind of music, unlike the mediæval european music which is purely modal and develops its lines around a few emphasized notes of the scale, is often (for the first time ?) built on particular subsets (chords) of the scale. | | | With MidiNotate, you can convert my MIDI files to musical notation that can be immediately viewed on the screen as the music is playing, and print them as sheet music. |

| | Amazon.com: Irish Heartbeat [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED]: Music |
| | Irish music albums suffer from the perception that all Irish songs are really the same melody done in various different styles, as a ballad, a jig, a hornpipe, or what have you. | | | "Irish Heartbeat" was a landmark album because it was the first attempt by Celtic traditionalists, The Chieftains, to collaborate with well known popular music singers. | | | If you are not Irish, or a friend of ERIN, you will be after a listen to this album. |

| | One of the most pleasing features of the Irish music scene in recent years is the large number of talented singer/songwriters to emerge, and one of the most successful is John Farry. | | | The Corrs are currently one of the hottest Irish bands around, having topped the Irish and UK charts with their album "Talk on Corners", and performed across the US in the recent Guinness Fleadh. | | | Margo has been in the business now for many years and she is still recording albums full of both country and Irish songs. |

| | With their unique blend of contemporary and traditional Irish music, the Corrs, have established themselves as true originals. | | | The phenomenon of RIVERDANCE draws on Irish traditions and combines the richness of the music with the magic and sensuality of the dance. | | | In 1968 her elder brothers Ciarán and Pól, and uncles Pádraig and Noel Ó Dúgáin, formed the band An Clann As Dobhair to perform traditional Irish music at festivals etc. Changing their name to Clannad, and recruiting sister Máire in 1973, the band went on to international success performing both their own and traditional material. |

| | Topics in traditional Irish music |
| | Traditional Irish music today is frequently encountered in the "session" (or even "seisiún"), a gathering of (usually) amateur musicians where tunes are played in unison by all the musicians who know the tune. | | | The interesting topic of what the state of music in Ireland was before the 18th century was taken up by Donegal music expert Caoimhín Mac Aoidh on the IRTRAD-L list. | | | A 1962 conversation with Willie Clancy, the famed piper, explores his philosophy of traditional music. |
