  • The Development of an Archive of Explicit Stylistic
    CONCLUSIONS I trust I am offering to my countrymen an acceptable present: the gift has novelty, at least, to recommend it. Though Ireland has been long famed for its poetry and music, these subjects have never yet been treated of historically. I do not pretend to have done completely, what has lain so long undone: no doubt, many sources of information still remain unopened, and many documents unconsulted. However, I have marked out a path, which may facilitate the pursuit of those who shall hereafter follow me.1 It may be ironic to conclude this latest study of Irish traditional music with the words that Joseph Cooper Walker used to open what is regarded as the first book on the subject, yet the sentiment is shared. In many ways, the best of what both studies have achieved is to draw attention to the vastness of that which still remains unknown. Similarly to Walker, the focus of this study is not on comprehensiveness but on the investigation of a pathway that may be useful beyond the scope of this thesis. The fundamental objective of this research was to develop and refine a process through which an archive of explicit stylistic data could be constructed and then to determine what practical outcomes would emerge from working with explicit stylistic data in this way. One of the more interesting results of the project was that from conversations with other musicians and academics I found that the basic idea of codifying and using stylistic knowledge was not new. Kristiina Ilmonen, the former director of the Folk Music Department at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki, told me that she uses the term ‘treasure box’, to describe the mental space where her musical knowledge is stored and from which she can select elements of it for use in performance.

  • The Development of an Archive of Explicit Stylistic
    CHAPTER THREE TUNE-TYPES In The Companion to Irish Traditional Music, Fintan Vallely defines the term tune-type as: The major forms, with specific time-signatures, are highland/ strathspey, hornpipe, jig (several forms), reel polka, waltz and mazurka. Those with various time signatures are slow airs, planxties, marches and song airs. Other dance related forms are barn dance, fling, German, schottische and two-step. Quadrilles are of historic interest, as is the minuet.1 The term – tune-type – acts as an umbrella term, under which the tunes that comprise the genre’s instrumental music can be organised. In this sense, it is a term that can be used to refer collectively to the reel, jig, polka etc. and it is in this manner that it is most likely understood and used by musicians. Interestingly, a more specific definition of the term does not appear to exist. In Vallely’s description, it is implied that that the terms tune-type and form are synonymous. But since form is understood as ‘the constructive or organizing element in music’2 and the same tune-type can be found in multiple forms - as a two, three, or even seven-part tune – both terms cannot be said to be synonymous.3 The form of the tune’s individual parts on the other hand could be said to be a salient feature because it is a defining characteristic of tune-types such as the set dance. I would suggest that the information required to define particular tune-types includes: metre, tempo, rhythmic characteristics and the form of individual parts.

They provide for sensory, emotional, intellectual and creative enrichment and contribute to the child’s holistic development. Much of what is finest in society is developed through a variety of art forms which contribute to cultural ethos and to a sense of well-being. Arts education enables the child to explore alternative ways of communicating with others.
