Irish Traditional Music Archive

Nicholas Carolan, Director Emeritus, holding a lecture at the "Craiceann Bodhrán Festival" 2014 The Irish Traditional Music Archive (or ITMA; ), operating as a charity, is a "national reference archive and resource centre for the traditional song, instrumental music and dance of Ireland". Focusing on Irish traditional music, Irish dance and their history, the archive covers the performance traditions of the island of Ireland, within the Irish diaspora, and other performers of Irish traditional music globally.

The archive, described by some sources as the "largest collection of its kind in the world", contains thousands of sound recordings, as well as books and serials, photographs, sheet music, DVDs, posters and catalogues. Founded with the Breandán Breathnach Collection, the collection has been expanded through donations by radio, television, libraries and private collectors.

Founded in 1987, the archive has been housed in a Georgian house in central Dublin since 2006. Provided by Wikipedia
