Music Fun Facts from Mrs. Clensay-Clark In preparation for St. Patrick’s Day on March 17, here are some fun facts about Irish music: The Irish value their music so much that an Irish harp is pictured on their euro coins. The Irish harp was played as long ago as the 10th century. The tin whistle was an inexpensive instrument produced by the Clarke company in Manchester, England. Irish schoolchildren learn the basics of playing this simple instrument like American schoolchildren learn the soprano recorder. The bodhrán is the traditional Irish frame drum, which has had a resurgence in popularity since the 1960s. The four-string tenor banjo is now fully accepted in Irish folk music, but this instrument actually originated with African slaves in the United States and was brought back to Ireland by returning emigrants. In Irish stepdance, dancers keep their upper bodies stiff while doing intricate footwork. Riverdance, featuring Irish music and dance, was rst performed during the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest. It was so popular that an entire show was built around that act. The top ve biggest selling Irish acts of all time are U2, Enya, Van Morrison, The Cranberries, and Westlife.
