I have a teacher for one month , who is also a violin teacher (wich I gave to my wife 3 years ago) (the violin, not the teacher), who is trying to get us to play together, and he is teaching us some irish pieces... and I fond it s sometimes very similar!
The Border between Irish Trad and bluegrass music is as wide as the Atlantic Ocean they are completely different, No drum's, pipes, whistles, squeeze boxes or pipes in the Bluegrass music. The music your wife should learn is Ulster Scotts, a lot of the fiddle tunes came from Scotland via Ulster then the USA.
French and Maritime Canadian music has also crept into the Bluegrass genre over the years too. See Devin`s lesson on St. Anne`s Reel. He also has an excellent lesson on Shady Grove as well featuring chord progression, lyrics and guitar breaks. You may already be aware of this.
@jambongris yes , I agree, i often hear some beautiful similarities in certain pieces, espedcially in the rhythm. I saw from far Shdy grove course, but it is "programmed" for later!
@wjssavhotmail-co-uk oh shit! i saw similarities in rhythm and intonation, and i made an absurd parrallel ... big mistake on this forum! ... I'm going to hide 😰 😨
