Sources for Irish tunes and songs in different formats

Henrik Norbeck's Abc Tunes - Henrick is a Swedish flute player and a diligent collector of tunes in ABC and GIF. His website is comprehensive and frequently updated. Recommended!

Irish Tunes.net - A searchable collection of Irish tunes in ABC and gif formats.

TheSession.org - is a website which has a great archive of tunes in different formats (abc/gif), it has a searchable index of tunes and subscribers are welcome to add tunes to the archive.

Fiddler's Companion - One of the finest sources for traditional Irish music on the web.

JC's ABC tune finder - A tool for looking up titles in an online index of ABC tunes on the Web.

O'Neill's Music of Ireland - One of the most valuable Irish music projects I have come across on the internet - O'Neill's collections revised and translated into ABD and MIDI formats.

The Slowplayers session - is one of my favorite websites, being a proud member of the slowplayers Israeli group. The slowplayers session is a session that plays the tunes at roughly half speed or less. The goal of the session is to learn the tunes in a friendly and supportive environment with others who are at the same skill level. The Slowplayers website also includes an impressive list of tunes in different formats.

RichardRobinson's Tunebook - another online ABC and gif tunebook, searchable by country, type, key, time etc.

The Digital Tradition - Folk Songs Database

Irish Music Web Sites

CEOLAS - In my opinion - one of the best sources for learning all you want to know about Irish music.Unfortunately, it hasn't been updated for a while so many of the links are not valid.

Scoiltrad - For many Irish music players around the world it is a dream come true! "It is the first truly interactive online music school. Founded by well-known Irish Traditional musicians Conal Ó'Gráda (Flute), Eoin O'Riabhaigh (Uilleann Pipes) and Kevin Glackin (Fiddle), Scoiltrad provides music classes for all musical abilities, from beginner through advanced. Classes are in the form of multimedia modules with fully integrated Audio / Video, Text, Notation and Finger Charts. Once the student has taken a class, they can e-mail an MP3 file of their own playing to Scoiltrad where the tutor will respond with feedback and guidance."
