IRISH MUSIC
Irish Music! You could say the phrase Irish
music anywhere in the world and a vision of
what Irish music is, will be apparent to millions
of people, the majority of whom would have never
set foot on Irish soil. How many other nations
on earth have that special link to music? Irish
music is maybe Ireland's greatest gift of all
to the cultures of the world.
Whilst music is in the DNA of all humanity, you
could be forgiven, for believing especially so
the Irish. Ireland is famous for her Musical sons
and daughters, and Ireland has produced some of
the best musical artists in the history of human
kind.
The list of Music artists that Ireland has produced
in just the last 50 years is mind blowing. Irish
music from the excellence in the traditional Irish
music style of The Chieftains and The Bothy band,
to the Irish balladeers the Dubliners and The
Fureys. Irish music of the Celtic Rockers Thin
Lizzy and Horslips, to the world renowned classical
and pop music composer Phil Coulter. To the modern
Irish musicians and hit makers such as Snow Patrol
and The Frames, to the World Record breaking U2.
To the wonder of Irish music of the past now brought
back to life and to world acclaim by the likes
of Irish music artists such Clannad and Enya.
And the Irish natural leaning to make music never
did just stop on the shores of Ireland. Irish
emigrants have produced the likes of The Beatles
(all of whom were of Irish ancestry), Oasis, The
Smiths, Elvis Costello, Eddie Cochrane, Jim Reeves,
Pat Boone, The Andrews Sisters, Tommy Dorsey,
Judy Garland, Glen Campbell, Bing Crosby, Huey
Lewis, even The King, Elvis Presley had roots
in Ireland, as do hundreds of more popular music
artists around today.
Today Irish music has never been more popular.
In every town in Ireland Irish music, a music
style that has been nurtured down centuries and
borrowed from Irish people long gone, can be heard
in Irish music pubs every night of the week. More
than this Irish music has become so popular that
there are now Irish music artists in every corner
of the world, the Irish pub phenomenon is because
of the music the Irish make; there are Dutchman
who sing as Christy Moore, Germans as The Dubliners
and the Pogues in tribute bands across the world
(including Japan).
So passionate, so strong is the bond and calling
back to the Irish Music roots that today In the
U.S.A., Britain, Australia and many other places
there are home grown Irish music artists that
can compete with the best. Today it is not unusual
for a second or third generation Irish from Manchester
or Boston to be crowned all Ireland Flute, Fiddle
or Bodhran champion.
