Use this form to contact staff at the John J. Burns Library at Boston College with comments or inquiries regarding the Séamus Connolly Collection of Irish Music, or if you are interested in further research related to the Séamus Connolly Papers or the Burns Library Irish Music Archives.
The songs, tunes, and texts comprising The Séamus Connolly Collection of Irish Music were compiled over a period of fourteen years. Great care was taken in the preparation of this online resource, which was completed in October 2016 and reflects the knowledge and expertise of Séamus Connolly. Any updates will be limited to the correction of verifiable factual errors, keeping in mind that because traditional music is fluid and living, tunes may not have a single or clear source and may have different melodic versions.
