| Added by magataganm, 13 Jul 2013 The folk music of Ireland (also known as Irish traditional music, Irish trad, Irish folk music, and other variants) is the generic term for music that has been created in various genres in Ireland. Historically much old-time music of the USA grew out of the music of Ireland, England and Scotland, as a result of cultural diffusion. By the 1970s Irish traditional music was again influencing music in the USA and further afield in Australia and Europe. It has occasionally been fused with rock and roll, punk rock and other genres, as in certain recordings of Horslips, Thin Lizzy, The Corrs, The Chieftains, Enya, Clannad, Riverdance, and Van Morrison. "Caitlín Tirial" AKA "Ketty Terrol" (Scots), "Kitty Tyrrel." AKA - "O Blame Not the Bard." Irish, Air (6/4 time). G Major (O'Farrell, Roche): E Flat Major (Gow). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Roche): AAB (O'Farrell): AABB (Gow, O'Farrell). The melody appears in Cooke's Selection of Twenty-one Favourite Original Irish Airs arranged for Pianoforte, Violin or Flute (Dublin, 1793), and also in Bunting's Ancient Irish Music of 1796 (the latter volume consists of 66 airs collected mostly from musicians at the Belfast Harp Festival of 1792). It also appears in O'Farrell's collection Pocket Companion for the Irish or Union Pipes, and John Mulholland's Ancient Irish Airs vol. 2 (Belfast, 1810). See also the Scottish air/jig "Miss Graham’s Delight." Although this work was originally written for Folk Instruments, I created this arrangement for Flute & Concert (Pedal) Harp. | |||
