And veteran group the Chieftains who started off playing in pubs now give sell -out concerts at major venues all over the world. What do all these people have in common? They are all Irish.
B. Celtic music is clearly enjoying huge popularity. In fact Irish pubs are opening all over the world and you wouldn't be surprised to come across Irish music or an Irish pub in Kiev or Katmandu. Most of the music you hear in these pubs is traditional dance. An Irish music - and you are expected to get up and dance. An Irish music session is not a spectator sport!

D. Music is an important new export of Irish culture but writers are doing well too. In the past Ireland has produced some of the best writers and poets in the English language Jonathan Swift James Joyce W.B. Yeats George Bernard Shaw Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett. More recently the poet Seamus Heaney won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1995 and Roddy Doyle has received praise throughout Europe for his novels among them The Commitments
E. Not to be left out the Irish film scene is in good shape , too. The government has set up a fund for films about (and produced in) Ireland and film actors such as Liam Neeson and Pierce Brosnan are international stars. Among the films you should look out for are Michael Collins In the Name of the Father Angela's Ashes and The Snapper.

Кельтская музыка явно пользуется огромной популярностью. Фактически, ирландские пабы открываются по всему миру, и вас не удивят ирландская музыка или ирландский паб в Киеве или Катманду. Большинство музыки, которую вы услышите в этих пабах, является традиционным танцем. При ирландской музыке вы ожидаете встать и танцевать. Сеанс ирландской музыки - это не зрелищное шоу! Если вы не участвуете, вы упустите развлечение - самые захватывающие моменты вечера.
Конечно, ирландская музыка имеет свои спокойные настроения. Некоторые люди говорят, что арфа, национальный символ, обладает волшебными способностями. Другим национальным инструментом являются уильянские волынки, которые очень сложно играть. Говорят, что если вы беретесь за волынку, вам понадобятся семь лет обучения, семь лет практики и семь лет игры, чтобы их овладеть. Скрипка или фиддл играется по всей стране.
Музыка - важный новый экспорт ирландской культуры, но и писатели тоже успешно пишут. В прошлом Ирландия породила некоторых лучших писателей и поэтов на английском языке: Джонатан Свифт, Джеймс Джойс, У.Б. Йейтс, Джордж Бернард Шоу, Оскар Уайльд и Сэмюэл Беккет. Более недавно поэт Шеймус Хини в 1995 году получил Нобелевскую премию по литературе, а Родди Дойл получил похвалу во всей Европе за свои романы, среди которых "Обязательства".
Ирландская кинематографическая сцена также в порядке. Правительство создало фонд для фильмов о (и произведенных в) Ирландии, и киноактеры, такие как Лиам Нисон и Пирс Броснан, являются международными звездами. Среди фильмов, на которые стоит обратить внимание, можно назвать "Майкл Коллинс", "Во имя отца", "Пепельница Анджелы" и "Рыболов".
