Book Description
"The encyclopaedia of music in Ireland ... represents the first comprehensive attempt to chart Irish musical experience across recorded history. It also documents Ireland's musical relations with the world at large, notably in Britain, continental Europe and the United States, and it seeks to identify those agencies (personal and organisational) through which music has expressed itself as a cardinal feature of Irish political, social, religious and cultural life"--Introduction, page xxi.
