Irish Music

Irish music is a rich and diverse musical tradition that has a long and storied history. It encompasses a wide range of styles and genres, reflecting the cultural and historical influences that have shaped Ireland over the centuries.
In this group, we will listen to Irish music, especially items suggested by members. We will also explore its history, and teach ourselves about its techniques and structures.
If we have any players among our members, we will welcome performances from them.
