I am creating a web page index to all the Celtic midi files that I can find on the web. It will be a great resource for people that are looking for a particular tune, or for people ,like me that use Midis as a source for new tunes to learn to play.(I don't see any point in duplicating what is already available)

Please submit any celtic midi sites that you know of. Thank you.

This is not exactly what you ask for, but the URL

http://www.gre.ac.uk/~c.walshaw/abc/

Has a lot of links to Celtic sites with tunes in abc rather than MIDI format. Some of the sites have MIDI files too, I think.

I am not trying to push ABC over MIDI, but the information you are interested is contained in these files at these sites. The page also points to free software for playing abc files and for converting them to MIDI files.

Thank you for the midi sites.I don't need any advice on the use of search engines. The search engines just keep bringing back the same choices. Keep the midi sites coming. Thanks.

I am sorry, I haven't used Mudcat in so long I didn't realize that the "cookie" wasn't working. Please keep them coming I am hoping to get some Midi sites that I don't already have. It should make it very easy for people to find Midis for celtic tunes all over the web. Thanks.

This site isn't specifically what you were asking for but it does contain some Scottish traditional and folk MIDI, some traditional Irish, traditional English, and I believe some Welsh. It's worth a quick look. Http://www.ability.org.uk/midisong.htm#top

Hi Padraic

This site is a good starting point for Celtic things of all kinds, which is why it's called Every Celtic Thing on the Web, I suppose :-)

http://celt.net/og/ethmusic.htm Every Celtic Thing

This address is for the music links, but there are also about 4 pages of Celtic musicians' links as well.
