Ceol Tíre, the FMSI newsletter for members, was published from the mid seventies until December 1989. It contained reports of meetings and seminars and varied articles and snippets concerning Irish traditional music. We are now making a selection of archival items which should still be of interest after many years, and will add to them from time to time.
