Roll forth my song , like
the rushing river,
That sweeps along to the mighty sea
god will inspire while I deliver
my soul of thee !
Tell thou the world , when my bones lie whitening
amid the last homes of youth and eld ,

no eye beheld.
Roll on my songs and to after ages
Tell how disdaining all earth can give
He would have taught men from winsdom’s pages
they way to live .

Слайд 21 Music and Irish Society
Music is an integral part of societ
and Irish culture , enjoyed and
performed by large numbers of people around the world . Music examines concepts of regional styles in music and the connection between Irish traditional music and places in Ireland. ). Geographical interest in music may be linked to a
longstanding interest in finding ‘a rational and fundamental basis for dividing the
earth’s surface into its most significant parts’ (Russell and Kniffen, 1969: 6). Yet, the
geographical study of music is a relatively new area. In the mid-1990s, a number of
geographers questioned geography’s fascination with the visual at the expense of a
sonic experience of the world (Smith, 1994, 1997; Kong, 1995, 1996). Carney
attempted to create an understanding of American culture through various
phenomena and processes, including the evolution of musical styles and genres that
could be traced to cultural hearths (1995; 1998). Almost all geographical studies of
music have engaged in a discourse around identity and the creation of boundaries,
borders and regions. Thompson suggests that “[m]usic geography is emerging to
provide valuable perspectives that question the socially constructed boundaries
around the production and consumption of music” (2006: 67). Through the
identification of various sounds and spaces, geographers attempt to understand the
processes that impact on the generation of music at the margins and the
development of new cultural cores (Leyshon et al, 1995; Kong, 1996; Morton, 1998,
2001; Jazeel, 2005).
