Received 29 May, 2020; Accepted 9 February, 2021 This paper is an ethnographic examination and exploration of the power politics of the Ar Rinci Foirne and the subsequent changes in perceived nationalism, stylizations, and memory of Irish dance as it refers to both the practiced repertoire and textual archive of ceili dancing within Ireland and the Diaspora. The researcher examined each iteration of the Ar Rinci Fiorne antecedent and relevant texts the socio-political climate following the Irish Civil War, and the aims of the Gaelic League to determine how the textual archiving through the 2014 edition of “Ar Rinci Foirne'' affected embodied memory of Irish Ceili dancing. Theories of transculturation, ethnography, post-structuralist criticism, archiving with thematic and chronological examination of texts were utilized with a qualitative methodology. Through the intentional inclusion and exclusion of dances, the Ar Rinci Foirne functions as codification and propaganda of Irishness through dance, while systematically altering and erasing embodied memory of ceili dances within Ireland and the Diaspora. Key words: Irish dance, ceili, ethnography, embodied memory, folk dance. INTRODUCTION An Coimisiun played a significant role in the preservation the periphery by this act, and what dances or styles of Irish dance repertoire while simultaneously erasing flourished as a result? 2.

  • OVERVIEW of IRISH DANCE HISTORY of Irish Dance Dancing and Music Hold a Significant Place in Irish Culture
    WA A I’ H I I I R E I S C H H N D A HawaiiIrishDance.ORG Introd duction to OVERVIEW OF IRISH DANCE HISTORY of Irish Dance Dancing and music hold a significant place in Irish culture. Not just for special occasions, dance and socializing are part of regular life. Traditionally Irish dance was taught to every person as a child, boys and girls. Everyone in a community would dance and enjoy music regularly at community socials, known as "ceilis” (pronounced kay-lees). These parties were essential times of sharing news and communing with neighbors.

  • Ár Rincí Fóirne Thirty Popular Céilí Dances Eagrán 2003 an COIMISIÚN LE RINCÍ GAELACHA, 6 Sráid Fhearchair, Baile Átha
    Ár Rincí Fóirne Thirty Popular Céilí Dances Eagrán 2003 AN COIMISIÚN LE RINCÍ GAELACHA, 6 Sráid Fhearchair, Baile Átha Cliath 2 IRISH DANCE MUSIC A well-known exponent of Irish Dancing once remarked that the happiness and pleasure of dancing was the stimulus of gay spirited music. How true these words are can be realized when we see a party of dancers at a Céilí endeavouring to perform such a fine spirited dance as the ‘High-Cauled Cap’ to dull, insipid, lifeless music. Spiritless music means that there is a lack of ‘Rhythmic Vitality’ – which is part of the player´s own soul. Perhaps the only outside help he can get is a correct understanding of the dances. ‘Speeding’ is no certain cure for the absence of ‘Rhythmic Vitality’, the most essential element in Irish dance Music. Generally speaking, the more speedy the music, the more lifeless it becomes. Not alone does over-hasty playing destroy the outline and sentiment of the tune, it also tends to spoil the technique of the dancers. The ‘Tempo’ of Irish Dancing must be regulated by the ages of the dancers. Children, as a rule, require quicker time than do adults, as young people are unable to get the control necessary for slow music without a great deal of effort and concentration, resulting in a loss of spirit and enjoyment. Adults, on the other hand, prefer a moderate Tempo, as they have not the physical strenght necessary for our lively, energetic dances when taken at a quick pace. This question of Tempo can only be solved by regulating it to suit the majority, rather than the few, and thus assist in the retention of that grace, beauty and elegance of movement which is a natural characteristic of all Irish Dances.

  • Oireachtas Info
    TEELIN SCHOOL OF IRISH DANCE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT AN OIREACHTAS (…WELL OK, ALMOST EVERYTHING…) WHAT IS AN OIREACHTAS? Within the context of Irish dance, Oireachtas (pronounced “O-ROCK-TUS”) is an annual regional championship competition. Prestigious in its own right, the Oireachtas also serves as a qualifying event for the National and World Competitions. The Teelin School of Irish Dance is part of the Southern Region, one of the seven regions in North America. The Southern Region Oireachtas is also referred to as “the SRO”. The Irish word "oireachtas" literally means "gathering". A convenient mnemonic for the spelling of Oireachtas is “Oh, I reach to a star”. (Note: Outside of Irish dancing context, the term “Oireachtas” is the national parliament or legislature of the Republic of Ireland.) WHAT ARE THE COMPETITIONS AT OIREACHTAS? There are two broad categories of competitions at Oireachtas: solos and teams. Solo championships at Oireachtas are qualifying events for the World Championships. Registration is open only to TCRG’s (certified teachers), who are ultimately responsible for registering the competitors they feel will positively reflect their school. Solo championships are divided by age and gender only, not by levels. Each competitor performs a hard shoe dance (treble jig or hornpipe) and a soft shoe dance (reel or slip jig) specified by the Oireachtas syllabus. The cumulative scores from those two rounds determine which dancers will be recalled to perform a hard shoe set dance in the third round. Dancers who advance to the third round are awarded placements, and the top percentage of dancers within eligible age groups qualify for the World Championships.

    Blas International Summer School of Irish Traditional Music and Dance Irish World Academy of Music and Dance University of Limerick DANCE TUTORS COLIN DUNNE Colin Dunne is a leading figure in the world of traditional Irish dance, who has made the cross over into contemporary dance and theatre. Best known internationally for his performances and choreography in Riverdance and Dancing on Dangerous Ground, he has been forging a new creative path since his time as artist in residence at University of Limerick where he completed an MA in contemporary dance in 2002. In 2007 he was nominated for a UK Critics Circle National Dance Award (best male: modern dance) for performances at The Barbican in Fabulous Beast’s production of The Bull. His first solo show Out of Time premiered in January 2008. Colin Dunne was born in 1968 in Birmingham, England to Irish parents. He took his first lesson in Irish step dance at the age of three with the locally based Comerford School. At the age of 9, he won his first World Championship title and was the first dancer to win the World, All England and All Ireland titles in the same year. From the age of 12 he was taught by Marion Turley in Coventry and when he retired from competition at the age of 22, he had won a total of nine World, eleven Great Britain, nine All Ireland and eight All England titles. He was influenced from an early age by tap dance – Gregory Hynes in particular – which contributed to his often complex approach to rhythm within the structures of traditional Irish music.

    Irish Dances Introduction My topic is going to be the Irish traditional dances. I’ve decided to do this work about these type of dances because my great grandmother’s family was Irish, and i just wanted to know a bit more about my roots, specially the dance there in Ireland, because i think it’s one of the most beautifully curious local traditions and cultures. History When the Celts arrived in Ireland from central Europe over two thousand years ago, they brought with them their own folk dances. There is evidence that among its first practitioners were the Druids, who danced in religious rituals honoring the oak tree and the sun. Types v Irish Céilí Dances v Irish Step Dancing v Irish Céilí Dances A céilí is a social gathering featuring Irish music and dance. Céilí dancing is a specific type of Irish dance. Some céilithe (plural of céilí) will only have céilí dancing, some only have set dancing, and some will have a mixture. Irish social, or céilí dances vary widely throughout Ireland and the rest of the world. A céilí dance may be performed with as few as two people and as many as sixteen. Céilí dances may also be danced with an unlimited number of couples in a long line or proceeding around in a circle. Céilí dances are often fast and some are quite complex. The céilí dances are typically danced to Irish instruments such as the Irish bodhrán or fiddle in addition to the concertina (and similar instruments), guitar, whistle or flute. v Irish Step Dancing Stepdancing as a modern form is descended directly from old-style step dancing.
