Energetic debate on traditionalism in Irish music and a larger profile within the academic system has created a wealth of new approaches to playing and an expansion of academic research interests. The Companion attempts to draw much of this new work together."--BOOK JACKET. "The Companion to Irish Traditional Music is not just the ideal reference for the interested enthusiast and session player, it also provides a unique resource for every library, school and home with an interest in the distinctive rituals, qualities and history of Irish traditional music and song."--BOOK JACKET.
