Summary
This book is about the history and practice of recording Irish traditional music and dance, and the variety of documents that exist as a result of the activities of collectors both in Ireland and in North America. Authors interrogate how music serves to create and articulate identity, how changing context and emic and etic perspectives on music can influence a music's evolution
