A warm welcome to all Irish music lovers from The Irish Weaver's in Cork, Ireland.
We'd like to tell you a little bit about Ireland and about ourselves and hope that you will enjoy our conversation.
Despite it's small population of around five million Ireland is a cultural haven with an extraordinary range of tradition, music, song, dance and above all personality.
The Irish music experience encompasses ballads, trad. music, humour, dance, story telling, natural whistling, laments, character and a huge range of instruments : a small tin-whistle, uileann pipes (Irish elbow pipes), button accordion, piano accordion, fiddle, guitar, bodhran (Irish drum), mandolin, spoons and so on. The list is endless.
