The Session


http://www.thesession.org/
Excellent internet resource for ceili sessions
The exchange of tunes is what keeps traditional Irish music alive.
This website is one way of passing on jigs, reels and other dance tunes.
Some of the tunes are well known, and some are more obscure.
It's this mixture of the familiar and the new that makes for a good session.
