TRADITIONAL MUSIC IN IRELAND by Tomas O Canainn: One of Ireland's foremost uillean pipers gives his exhaustive insight into the real meaning of Irish traditional music. He briefly discusses the work of those who have collected and written down Irish traditional music, the structure and style of the music, then on to the distinctive features of sean-nos singing, and the uillean pipes and fiddle as they are played today. The influence of traditional instruments is explored as well as the styles of three musicians - piper Paddy Keenan, fiddler Matt Cranitch, and singer Diarmuid O Suilleabhaim. Includes musical examples along with song lyrics, background and translations. 145 pp.
