Description
The Irish music scene has been influenced in important ways by powerbrokers in the major sites of the global music industry. The music industry in any country should be seen in the context of local enterprise and major international music firms. It should also be seen in the context of separate, but overlapping, industries: the live music industry; the recorded music industry and the music publishing industry.
