Students in this class explore and contextualize Irish music across traditional, popular, and global contexts. Readings and discussions examine how Irish music spreads through diaspora and globalization; how “Irishness” is represented in film, media, and popular music; and how tradition, authenticity, and cultural exchange influence musical practices today. Irish music is approached as a dynamic art form shaped by local creativity and global circulation. Hands-on activities include learning traditional tunes on the D whistle, learning an Irish-language song, and dancing a set. This course is open to all campus majors. The ability to read music is not expected. Students may purchase a whistle independently or from the instructor during the first week of class ($10). Cross-listed with MUS 418A. Meets in Summer S2B.
