Audio

We believe that Irish music is for listening (and for dancing, of course!). We’ve been collecting recordings of some of the best players and singers out there, and here is some of what we’ve found.

Our audio archives come from a variety of sources: commercial recordings in our library, recordings that we’ve done of our tour groups over the years, donations from music collectors and our own archive collection. Seámus MacMathúna, in particular, spent years on the road with a tape recorder, capturing musicians in their sitting rooms, kitchens and favourite sessions.

Browse through our collection below - we may not have the track you’re looking for online yet, but you are always welcome to come and listen at one of our Regional Centres.
