Things Celtic Music Directory : Lyrics and Sheet Music

- Irish Songs & Lyrics
The Brittish Isles are full of great music. I fell in love with Irish songs and Scottish songs by listening to bands like The Dubliners, The Corries, The Wolfe Tones, The Clancy Brothers, Ewan MacColl, and the Irish Rovers. These artists inspired me to compile this list of Celtic and Irish Songs & Lyrics with streaming MP3s free, so you can listen and learn the way I do, by ear. ^pop (Added: 19-Jan-2006 Hits: 3988)

Bawdy Songs, On-line Songbook Contents List
The traditional music here is split into 22 different songbooks or tune-books, each dedicated to a particular type of traditional folk or roots music. There are musical scores with chords from which you can print sheet music and lyrics, there are also MIDI files to play so you can hear what the tunes sound like. The MIDIS play the melody on the left channel and a simple chord and bass accompaniment on the right. These should be suitable for those musicians who prefer to learn by ear. ^pop (Added: 12-Nov-2003 Hits: 2104)
