Celtic music is a broad grouping of music genres that evolved out of the folk music traditions of the Celtic people of Western Europe.

It refers to both orally- transmitted traditional music and recorded music and the styles vary considerably to include everything from traditional music to a wide range of hybrids.

Celtic music means two things mainly. First, it is the music of the people that identify themselves as Celts. Secondly, it refers to whatever qualities may be unique to the music of the Celtic nations.
DESCRIPTION
Many notable Celtic musicians such as Alan Stivell and Paddy Moloney claim that the different Celtic music genres have a lot in common.

Irish emigrés created a large number of emigrant ballads once in the United States. These were usually “sad laments, steeped in nostalgia, and self-pity, and singing the praise of their native soil while bitterly condemning the land of the stranger”. These songs include famous songs like “Thousands Are Sailing to America” and “By the Hush”, though “Shamrock Shore” may be the most well- known in the field.
