Ethnomusicology Ireland

Ethnomusicology Ireland is a peer-reviewed online journal for research on music in its social and cultural context. Although it serves primarily as a forum for the research community based in Ireland, it welcomes submissions from all other locations and relevant disciplines.

Ethnomusicology Ireland is committed to identifying, addressing, and opposing all forms of racism and discrimination.

The journal is produced by an editorial team working under the Irish national committee of the ICTMD. You can contact the editor at editorei@ictmd.ie and the reviews editor at reviewsei@ictmd.ie.
