St. Paddy's Irish Flavored Musical Gifts


Happy St. Patrick's Evening to you all! Are you drinking green beer and getting ready to go dancing?

Today's musically oriented custom gifts were selected for their Irish themes, ranging from the artistic to more fun and popular, to highlight the time honored customs of Irish music.

Traditional Irish musical instruments include fiddle, bodhran, wooden flute, tin whistle, Uillean pipes, and the Irish harp. In the last couple of hundred years, the accordion or concertina, guitar, banjo, and bouzouki (a large mandolin) have become increasingly popular in Irish music.

The time signatures and styles of Irish tunes include the single jig (12/8 time), double jig (6/8 time), reel (4/4 time), hornpipe (4/4 time that swings), the slip jig (9/8 time), and sometimes various versions of polkas (2/4 time) and mazurkas or waltzes (3/4 time). All of these styles have traditional Irish dances associated with them.

Music has always been important in both rural and urban life in Ireland. However, after many centuries of British rule, a renewed interest in Irish music and dance blossomed with Nationalist movement of the late 1800s. A second major revival happened with the American folk music revival of the 1960s, and continues to this day.

And, of course, in the last 20 years a new generation of young musicians began merging their traditional Irish folk sounds with rock and punk. Irish punk groups like the Pogues and Flogging Molly have brought back some classic sounds of Irish music mixed with the edgier electronic sounds of modern rock.

This week's music themed gifts have a distinctly Irish flavor. You can find all of these and thousands more fun music themed products at our store Gifts for Musicians.
