Description
Excerpted from the website:
- During the early part of the twentieth century there was a renaissance in Irish traditional music. Much of this was due to the famous recordings by Michael Coleman, Jim Morrison and Paddy Kiloran in the States. Many of these recordings found their way back to Ireland with returning emigrants giving a boost to our native home-based culture. However, as the century progressed various events such as the introduction of the “Dance Halls” act and the demise of house dances along with the globalisation of entertainment in general led to a certain marginalization of traditional entertainment. This threat to our traditional culture soon became apparent to many of those involved at the time and the need for urgent action to redress the situation was agreed.
