Abstract:
Many music production programmes in higher education institutions are heavily invested in popular music genres and production values in contrast to the diversity of musics often included in other music programmes and encountered in everyday life. Commenting on his 2017 album, Ed Sheeran highlights the potential for incorporating Irish traditional music into popular music. Over the past number of years, creative practice research projects at Dundalk Institute of Technology have provided opportunities for music production students to engage in the recording and production of Irish traditional music, broadening their experience beyond popular music genres and facilitating time for them to work collaboratively with Irish traditional musicians. Thus, an authentic and action-oriented mode of engagement in higher education is utilized to enhance the learning experience continuously aware of changes and attitudes in the music industry. This article focuses on three Summer Undergraduate Research Projects that provided students with the opportunity to research and record Irish traditional music during the summer months. The project not only provided the students with credible industry-like experience, it also provided the staff involved with an insight into the potential of collaborative project work to address multiple learning aims and objectives. In this article, a critical review of the projects is informed by feedback from the students involved, which can inform future development and structures of existing programmes in music production education.

Abstract:
"The focus of this paper is to bring into light the traditional categories of Irish dance music, emphasizing the musical characteristics that differentiate them. Energetic and effervescent, Irish dance music is rarely analyzed, with Irish folklore lacking a school of dedicated musicologists. The topic of this article is important in the context of the tensions related to globalization, commodification, and transformations in Irish Traditional Music, that scholars are examining. The paper includes musical examples of the traditional Irish dance music categories, for a better view of the phenomenon. Keywords: Irish music, dance music, ethnomusicology. "

Abstract:
AbstractDance has rarely been accepted as the subject of copyright protection because works of dance and choreography have lacked commodified property-object status in intellectual property law. If dance is “haunted by its own ephemerality” and, thus, rarely embodied as property, then what of dance music? Music composed, performed, and recorded with a dance audience in mind has formed, on many occasions, the subject matter of intellectual property law claims, as the rancorous recent litigation over the nightclub (and online-streaming) hit “Blurred Lines” demonstrates. In this article, I utilize the case study of traditional Irish dance music to explore how traditional music occupies a space somewhat outside the formal legal system, defined by informal social norms such as reciprocity, sharing, and acknowledgment (attribution). I consider how Irish traditional music can be represented as heritage and as property, reflecting on the type of ownership at play in the Irish traditional music community. I observe that Irish traditional dance music provides an example of “heritage as resistance” – a mode of cultural and social practice that continues to thrive as a living tradition, even in the contemporary market-oriented world of the global North.

AbstractFrancis O'Neill, one of the towering figures of Irish traditional music, was among the first to collect and publish Irish dance music. His compilations form the most complete glimpse into Irish musical practice at the turn of the twentieth century and are still regarded as the definitive source for traditional tunes. Three recent publications on O'Neill and his times throw light on his life, his passion for the music, and his legacy among today's traditional music community.

Abstract:
AbstractThe emergence of the compact disc in 1979 was regarded as the likely sales salvation of recorded music, and for many years the CD reigned supreme, generating steady, often substantial, company profits. More recently, however, the music industry has painfully slipped a disc. The CD has been in sharp decline, propelled mainly by young consumer ire over price and format inflexibility and by Internet technology available to skirt or subvert both. Irish American traditional music has not been impervious to this downward trend in sales and to other challenging trends and paradigm shifts in recording and performing. Amid the tumult, Irish American traditional music has nevertheless shown a new resilience and fresh vitality through a greater do-it-yourself, do-more-with-less spirit of recording, even for established small labels. The five recent albums of Irish American traditional music reviewed here—three of which were released by the artists themselves—exemplify a trend of their own, preserving the best of the past without slavishly replicating it. If the new mantra of music making is adapt or disappear, then Irish American traditional music, in adapting to change free of any impulse to dumb down, is assured of robustly enduring.

Kaul, Adam Robert. "An ethnography of tourism and traditional Irish music in Doolin, Ireland." Thesis, Durham University, 2004. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/3106/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is an ethnographic study of the complex interplay between tourism and traditional Irish music based on fourteen months of fieldwork in Doolin, County Clare, Ireland between June 2002 and August 2003. The historical development of traditional Irish music and the localised tourist industry have become conjoined during the last three decades, and as a result the music and the idea of Doolin as a 'place' have become institutionalised and consolidated. This has further led to the development of a complex socioeconomic structure surrounding the music, its performance, and its commercialisation and consumption. The local social structure has also become complicated and internationalised. Specifically, the locale has seen a significant growth in the 'incomer' population, called 'blow-ins'. Blow-ins in this case have in fact become the inheritors and propagators of the local music scene, but this causes surprisingly little cognitive dissonance or tension between locals and incomers. This is despite the fact that the music is the raison d'etre of the local tourism industry. I propose that those incomers who successfully inherit and propagate the local music become assets to the cultural capital of the village, not a drain on it. Moreover, I suggest that the 'authenticity' of the music is not an ascribed quality but interdependently related to social status, seasonality, one’s relationship with the music, context, and phenomenologically inter subjective relations. By means of holistic anthropological research, this thesis attempts to refine our understanding of complex social relations in touristed destinations, the appropriation of musical 'traditions', and sharpen current anthropological theories surrounding the issues of 'authenticity' and globalisation.

Full text
Abstract:
The issue of Irish art music has been the subject of much discussion in this past decade and beyond. Since Sean 0 Riada's exploits into the usage of Irish traditional music in an art music medium, there is thought to have been a fundamental division in Irish art music. Between composers who work mainly in the European styles of the twentieth century with perhaps only a nodding glance to Irish traditional music and those composers who use Irish music with a retrospective eye to the techniques of the nineteenth century, there has been no perfect marriage of the two. In this work, the current dichotomy between traditional Irish music and contemporary music is studied through the context of twelve new compositions and accompanying commentaries, each addressing individual issues within this dichotomy. Drawing on recent summative work by Dave Flynn, the current problems in the incorporation of traditional Irish music in contemporary classical musical language are discussed and new approaches to this crossover considered. The innate expressive gestures of traditional performers are dissected 'and efficient means of communicating these to a contemporary musician developed. Fundamental aspects of traditional Irish music including melodic frameworks (modes), rhythm, ornamentation, aural transmission and improvisation are analysed and implemented systematically in new compositions for varying forces. One of the main areas which remains largely unexplored in traditional music is the possibility of microinterval modality. Old performances of traditional music contain many inflections in tuning, some but not all of which are slides. This work presents a preliminary empirical examination into precise and recurring pitch entities in old recordings and relatively modern performances of Irish traditional music which have been hitherto undocumented. The results of this are used in combination with other aspects of traditional language to create four new works comprising the Seamsur series .

Abstract:
This thesis and supporting portfolio examine the intersections between Irish traditional music, experimental music practices, improvisation and interactive technologies. The author is a traditional musician (harper and concertina player), composer and sound engineer. These practices are reflected in a layered methodology that combines ethnography, composition, historical and musicological research, software and interface design, and performance. A portfolio of compositions, improvisations, experiments and demonstrative videos supports the thesis. The second half of the twentieth century marked a revival in Irish traditional music, as well as a flourishing of experimental music activity. John Cage linked Irish traditional music and experimental music composition in Roaratorio, an Irish Circus on Finnegan's Wake. The thesis discusses the creation and performance of a new, multimedia realisation of Cage's score: Owenvarragh, a Belfast Circus on The Star Factory. It discusses improvisation, unconventional notation, human-computer interaction, chance and indeterminacy in Irish traditional music, and the role of the audience. The thesis further describes new systems for improvisation with and without electronic technology, comparing existing variation with free improvisation from th~ point of view of the traditional musician. The work embraces the presentation of Irish traditional dance music without dancers, and exploits the consequences of this for previously rigid rhythmic structures. _ The idea of the traditional musician as a solo performer shapes the work, and drives the creation of several interactive systems for solo performance of Irish harp with computer. Key issues discussed include the capture of rhythm in live electronics, flexibility in control, and the inclusion of spontaneity in performance. A new piece for harp and live electronics is presented, in which the computer sound is controlled by wireless motion sensor. The intersection of Irish traditional and experimental music is shown to be a productive route to explore a wide range of artistic, social and cultural ideas

Abstract:
Music Education
M.M.
The Irish singing session has provided a safe community where singers of all abilities are welcome to share with and learn from one another. Through British occupation and into independence, the Irish session has transformed tremendously from its original form. Still, the session carries on the Irish tradition of music learning and enculturation through oral transmission. Singing sessions provide a unique opportunity for the many songs of Irish history to be sung and learned; passed down from generation to generation! Singers learn new songs through listening to and watching other singers, imitating material, experimenting with new ideas, and discussing musical performances with others. Session leaders may attempt to create an encouraging and accepting environment where singers feel secure, resulting in the unbridled sharing of singers’ deep connections with a song. Such methods, including personal choice and a safe environment, have been observed through field research and have shown to positively affect singers and communities related to singing sessions in County Clare, Ireland. In this study, I pose that the methods used in singing sessions may also be beneficial when adapted for use in the music classroom.

Phillips, Olivia H. "Marine Melodies: Traditional Scottish and Irish Mermaid and Selkie Songs as Performed by Top Female Vocalists in Contemporary Celtic Music." Digital Commons @ East Tennessee State University, 2021. https://dc.etsu.edu/honors/622.

Full text
Abstract:
Mermaids and human-seal hybrids, called selkies, are a vibrant part of Celtic folklore, including ballad and song traditions. Though some of these songs have been studied in-depth, there is a lack of research comparing them to each other or to their contemporary renditions. This research compares traditional melodies and texts of the songs “The Mermaid,” “The Grey Selchie of Sule Skerry,” and “Hó i Hó i” to contemporary recordings by top female vocalists in Scottish and Irish music. The texts and melodies I have identified as “source” material are those most thoroughly examined by early ballad and folklore scholars. The source material for “The Grey Selchie of Sule Skerry” is a 1938 transcription by Otto Andersson. The source of notation and text for “The Mermaid” is the ballad’s A version from the Greig-Duncan Collection. The melody of “Hó i Hó i,” collected by folklorist David Thomson and published in 1954, serves as the third source version. Modern recordings included in the study are “The Mermaid” by Kate Rusby, “The Grey Selchie” by Karan Casey with Irish-American band Solas, and “Òran an Ròin,” a variant of “Hó i Hó i,” by Julie Fowlis. This study compares the forms, melodic contours, and texts of these variants, examining ways that contemporary recordings have maintained the integrity of traditional songs and ballads from which they are derived while adapting them to draw in a contemporary audience. The thesis illustrates the continued and evolving presence of mermaids and selkies in Scottish and Irish song.

Abstract:
Syftet med denna studie är att observera mitt lärande i studerande av irländsk musik. Studiens metod är att genom en mästare, lära repertoar som förmedlar stiltypiska drag. Som teoretisk utgångspunkt för studien har det sociokulturella perspektivet med fokus på mästarläran valts. Frågeställningarna som ligger till grund för studien undersöker vilka redskap som används för att appropriera den irländska musiken och vilka insikter och framsteg som gjorts i den irländska spelstilen under studiens gång. Efter analys av det under processen inhämtade material framkommer i resultatet användning av både materiella och teoretiska redskap som ofta samverkar. Vidare visar resultatet tecken på lärande inom områdena tempo, stråk och förståelse kring musiken. I diskussionen tas några av de slutsatser som framkommit i resultatet upp och kopplas till den litteratur och forskning som presenteras i arbetets bakgrundskapitel. Några av de punkter som tas upp i diskussionen är hur min musikaliska identitet utvecklas, lärande i sessions, vilken stil jag utvecklar under detta arbete och vad redskapen har för betydelse.
This study’s purpose is to observe the learning process of studying Irish traditional music. The method used in the study, is to learn repertoire mediating the Irish style from a master in the tradition. As a theoretical basis for the study a socio-cultural perspective with a focus on master-learning is used.  The study is based on research questions investigating how tools are used to learn the Irish style and how learning becomes visible and changes during the process. After analysing the material, collected during the process, the results show the use of both material and theoretical tools which often cooperate. Furthermore, the results show, how learning is achieved in the categories: tempo, bowing and understanding of the music. In the discussion some of the conclusions, appearing in the result, are brought up and connected to literature and research presented in the studies background chapter. Some of the topics discussed are how my musical identity develops, how learning takes place in sessions, how my style is affected during the study and what impact the tools have on learning.

Abstract:
We explore the transformer neural network architecture for modeling music, specifically Irish and Swedish traditional dance music. Given the repetitive structures of these kinds of music, the transformer should be as successful with fewer parameters and complexity as the hitherto most successful model, a vanilla long short-term memory network. We find that achieving good performance with the transformer is not straightforward, and careful consideration is needed for the sampling strategy, evaluating intermediate outputs in relation to engineering choices, and finally analyzing what the model learns. We discuss these points with several illustrations, providing reusable insights for engineering other music generation systems. We also report the high performance of our final transformer model in a competition of music generation systems focused on a type of Swedish dance.
