  • Tradition and Innovation in Irish Instrumental Folk Music
    TRADITION AND INNOVATION IN IRISH INSTRUMENTAL FOLK MUSIC by ANDREW NEIL fflLLHOUSE B.Mus., The University of British Columbia, 1990 B.Ed., The University of British Columbia, 2002 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Music) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA August 2005 © Andrew Neil Hillhouse, 2005 11 ABSTRACT In the late twentieth century, many new melodies were composed in the genre of traditional Irish instrumental music. In the oral tradition of this music, these new tunes go through a selection process, ultimately decided on by a large, transnational, and loosely connected community of musicians, before entering the common-practice repertoire. This thesis examines a representative group of tunes that are being accepted into the common- practice repertoire, and through analysis of motivic structure, harmony, mode and other elements, identifies the shifting boundaries of traditional music. Through an identification of these boundaries, observations can be made on the changing tastes of the people playing Irish music today. Chapter One both establishes the historical and contemporary context for the study of Irish traditional music, and reviews literature on the melodic analysis of Irish traditional music, particularly regarding the concept of "tune-families". Chapter Two offers an analysis of traditional tunes in the common-practice repertoire, in order to establish an analytical means for identifying traditional tune structure. Chapter Three is an analysis of five tunes that have entered the common-practice repertoire since 1980. This analysis utilizes the techniques introduced in Chapter Two, and discusses the idea of the melodic "hook", the memorable element that is necessary for a tune to become popular.

Elwood and Aubrey blend unusual harmonies and play guitar, Appalachian mountain dulcimer, Irish tin whistle, harmonica, banjo, bones, spoons and other musical surprises. Their performance is appealing to all ages, and with humor, audience participation, and a highly relaxed stage presence, Aubrey and Elwood explain song origins to give more relevance to the material. Aubrey and Elwood met as volunteers at the Stone Soup Coffeehouse in Providence and formed a duo in the fall of 1987. They perform widely in the Northeast and other parts of the United States and Great Britain and their recordings receive international airplay. Atwater and Donnelly have performed and researched folk music extensively in New England, Ireland, England, Prince Edward Island, the Ozarks, and Appalachia. They recently released a new recording called "And Then I'm Going Home: Atwater- Donnelly Live," which was recorded at the Blackstone River Theatre and other R.I. coffeehouses in 2000.

    The Album and the Musical Work in Irish Folk and Traditional Music, ca. 1955–70 Adrian Scahill Éire-Ireland, Volume 54, Numbers 1 & 2, Spring/Summer 2019, pp. 17-45 (Article) Published by Irish-American Cultural Institute DOI: https://doi.org/10.1353/eir.2019.0005 For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/725523 [ Access provided at 3 Nov 2020 16:25 GMT from Maynooth University ] Adrian Scahill The Album and the Musical Work in Irish Folk and Traditional Music, ca. 1955–70 In this article I explore the interrelationship between the introduc- tion of the long-playing record (or LP) into Ireland, the impact of the traditional and folk revival, and the emergence of the concept of a musical work within traditional music. The invention of long- playing records in the 1950s affected how record labels, musicians, and consumers conceptualized different musical styles, and it shaped the structure of recorded music (Montgomery 3; Keightley, “Long Play” 380). The LP came to be associated with serious music of ar- tistic worth that was aimed at an adult market. In the same decade the first long-playing records of Irish traditional or folk music were issued during the first phase of the revival. Irish revivalist musicians and activists of the 1950s and 1960s had a number of broad aims that included, but were not limited to, ensuring that this music was appre- ciated as serious and artistic by a wider audience in Ireland, making high-quality recordings of the music, and presenting the music in a professional and more artistic manner.
