An illuminating and acoustic experience dedicated to accurately preserving the musical legacy for current and future generations. This is reached through the reproduction, performance and interpretation of the extensive collection of ancient musical instruments. Living traditions help to shine a light on truly bringing this collection to life.

Pioneering knowledge that delves into the musical and cultural lives of our ancestors.

We are thrilled to launch this refreshed and more extensive website. Since John Cullen built and published the first website in 1996,  Ancient Music Ireland has welcomed over 2,000,000 visitors –  it is time to share new content! Photo by Astrid Neumann.
