Overview
The Irish Traditional Music MA at Maynooth University is anchored by a final capstone project (choosing from options in performance, recording, and thesis) and provides specialist training in the areas of student choice.
Three main strands of study (performance, portfolio (recording), thesis) allowing the student to explore practice, creativity and research according to their own specialisms.
By the end of the programme, students should be able to:
- Engage actively in the performance, composition and or/recording of Irish traditional music;
- Demonstrate a range of standard and specialised research tools or their equivalent;
- Discuss a range of cultural topics related to Irish traditional music in national and international contexts;
- Produce original work in the form of high-quality written texts, artistic performances, or artistic works.
