	Irish traditional music session - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Irish traditional music sessions are mostly-informal gatherings at which people play Irish traditional music.
		Sessions can be held in homes or at various public places in addition to pubs; often at a festival sessions will be got together in the beer tent or in the vendor's booth of a music-loving craftsman or dealer.
		The sessions are a key aspect of traditional music; some say it is the main sphere in which the music is formulated and innovated.

	Session Information (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		An Irish Traditional Music Session is an exuberantly fun gathering of Irish traditional musicians where there are active particpating musicians, listening musicians who are learning the repetoire, and often there is a listening audience.
		Session Content is: 100% Irish Traditional Session Music with the majority being instrumental session tunes and there are some vocal songs.
		As is typical with an Irish traditional session, such musicians are welcomed and encouraged to: listen to the session, take notes on the tune titles (so one can look up the tunes and memorize them) and one may ask permission to record session tunes for learning purposes.

	The Irish "session"
		The lifestyle in which Irish music originated is almost totally gone, and before we become too nostalgic about it we should remember that it was a life of hard physical labour, grinding poverty, poor health and early death.
		I suggest that unlike the songs, which were fraught with palpable meaning for the community, the session music, brought in through radio and records, while pleasant to listen to, did not bear the same meaning for the community.
		At one session, at the end of the evening, some of the older singers sang began to perform songs which encapsulated what being from Newtownbutler is about, and,the moment the singing began, the whole atmosphere changed, and virtually everyone in the pub became intensely engaged.

		Far from being a spontaneous free-for-all, the Irish music session is governed by a particular etiquette.
		Irish sessions are often changed beyond belief to the point where they're no longer Irish sessions (or at least, sessions of traditional Irish music).
		An extremely famous Irish fiddler once told me that there are sessions where he's glad that the participants are having fun, that they're doing something better than watching TV and all, but he would rather not be there.

	Irish Traditional Music
		The smart-alecky answer that it is the traditional music of Ireland is not strictly wrong, but it requires more detail to be useful to the person approaching the fascinating world of Irish music for the first time.
		The root of Irish music instrumentation is the Uilleann Pipes, (pronounced ILL-un, or ILL-yun,) the so-called Irish bagpipes, which are, by the way, a much different instrument from their more famous cousin, the Highland bagpipes played by military bands.
		We know that there was a musical tradition in the early Irish court, in which the harp (strung with brass wires played with the fingernails) featured prominently.

	Traditional Irish Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		An Irish "session" is a gathering of musicians (often taking place in a public venue) for the purpose of playing music together.
		There is a popular misconception that "The Irish session" is meant to be an open forum, where anybody who can come in off the street is welcome to participate and learn to make music at the same time.
		In reality, while some sessions may be such open forums, this characteristic is not intrinsic to "the session" itself, and it can be a big mistake to incorrectly assume that it is.
