Fusions of Irish Music One of the most interesting developments in recent times is the way in which other previously unrelated musical styles have interacted and fused with Irish traditional music. This has led to the development of several different categories of music with Irish influences

Fusions of Irish Music Traditional/classical In Micheal O Suilleabhain’s work Oilean, he combined traditional Irish flute with orchestra in a work or three movements. This involves a classical music ensemble such as a string quartet or chamber orchestra accompanying a traditional musician. Other composers who use this combination include Sean O Riada and Shaun Davey.

Fusions of Irish Music Traditional/Folk This type of fusion is played by groups such as the Clancy Brothers and The Dubliners who play popular ballads and Irish songs in an upbeat tempo with guitars and bouzouki. They also play Irish dance music between songs. De Dannon use mix guitar, bouzouki, Irish instruments and a cello. Frankie Gavin (fiddle) has experimented with popular songs for example Hey Jude which was sped up to the time of a reel. The group Altan seek out unheard Irish songs and put their own stamp on them. Their instruments include fiddle, guitars and bouzouki’s.

Fusions of Irish Music Clannad were a very progressive group in the 70s. They combined traditional with contemporary music. Their instrumentation includes synthesisers, drums, guitars mixed with the Irish instruments the harp, whistle and fiddle. The Corrs are a successful international pop group who use bodhran, fiddle and tin whistle in their music. Thin Lizzy is famous for his Jimmy Hendrix style of electric guitar playing.

Fusions of Irish Music Traditional/World Ethnic Music These include more exotic fusions of music with traditional Irish music for example Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe. Bill Whelen combined Irish music with Eastern European music in his work Riverdance. It uses uneven metres for example 7/8 instead of the traditional 6/8 time but still uses the traditional 32 bar round of Irish Dance tunes. The Afro-Celt Sound System mix African music with Irish with influences of Irish dance music and Sean nós singing strong elements of their sound.
