With its lively beat and sing-along lyrics, Irish music is extremely contagious - it's almost impossible to stop yourself from tapping those feet and breaking out into song! Ireland is renowned for its traditional music - like the landscape of this glorious country the music has a heartfelt and hauntingly beautiful resonance. The fiddle is the mainstay of the typical Irish sound, with whistles, guitars and the bodhran -an ancient framedrum - all playing an essential role.
