Irish Bagpipes Brian Boru Pipe
1,568 wordsIrish Bagpipes (Brian Boru pipe) The bagpipes have been a huge part of Irish music for many years. Today the bagpipe is synonymous with Scotland, but the pipes really came from Ireland.

As for Ireland, a seventh...

Order To Make Nineteenth Century
1,073 wordsCeltic music is a fanciful term which expresses a world-view or record-shelf category rather than actual links between music genres. More specifically the term Celtic has come to apply to easy-listening mood music with dreamy, non-specific but Irish/Scots flavour, marked as relaxing and evocative. The origin of Celtic music comes from the roots of ancient Celtic people - a group of Iron Age "barbarian" tribes with common language and culture that inhabited vast territories of Europe. The Celtic ...
