Gaelic music (Scottish Gaelic: Ceòl Gàidhealach, Irish: Ceol Gaelach) is an umbrella term for the folk music of the Scottish Highlands (see Scottish folk music) and of Ireland (see Irish folk music). It has also been used for any music written in the Gaelic languages of Scottish Gaelic and Irish. Gaelic music could thus be seen as a type of Celtic music.
