Music of the Isles
the weekly program of folk and acoustic music old and new from the Celtic countries
with host Bill Dudley

Instituted in 1979, WMNF's Music of the Isles has been home to a variety of artists, groups and musical styles, from Irish, Scottish, English, Canadian and Breton tunes and songs, to sea chanties, medieval and renaissance works, even a bit of new age. Bill Dudley, who also produces the weekly Live Music Showcase on WMNF, programs music from the newest releases mixed with old favorites from the last two decades.
Here are just a few links of interest to those wanting to know about Celtic Music or Culture, including the all-time most Frequently Asked Question: "Where can I get that album?"
