boglion Unaccompanied Singing - How & Why! (89* d) RE: Unaccompanied Singing - How & Why! 15 Mar 03

I spend a lot of time in County Kerry where my mother was born. I started singing in pubs there some 20 years ago. Nearly every singer in the area sings unaccompanied.

A CD was produced just before Christmas of local performers both living and dead. My grandmother is on it with two concertina tunes and a recitation. This thread has led me to analyse the content and I was not surprised to find that not one of the 52 tracks is an accompanied singer.

The breakdown is:
Solo Instrumental         17
Unacompanied Singer
