Authors examine the role of the fieldworker\/collector, the impact of broadcasting on regional style, the idea of \"Irish\" versus \"American\" style in early uilleann pipe recordings, and the impact of the recording process and marketing on traditional song, among other topics. Approaches vary from the analytical--comparing and analyzing various settings of tunes and titles--to the personal--reflecting on the impact of one's own collecting and fieldwork on a regional tradition. From original manuscripts in the National Library, to printed documents, audio and video recordings and art work, this book examines the reception history of Irish traditional music and dance. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 260\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 9.3 x 6.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 31, 2012\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47577157435613,"sku":"9781859184929","price":87.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/9867\/8237\/files\/En2klRtK89781859184929_037fc8da-d95b-4334-b0c2-816702b67668.webp?v=1773475691","url":"https:\/\/handfulofbooks.com\/products\/ancestral-imprints-histories-of-irish-traditional-music-and-dance-hardcover-1","provider":"Handful of Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
