Celtic Music?

Is celtic music also referred to as Gaelic music?
I'm having a real hard time trying to really define celtic music, does anyone have any good links or references to celtic music?
thanks!

   Gaelic would mean music from Ireland with or in the GAELIC LANGUAGE. Celtic music spreads all over Europe cause you have musicians from France Spain etc who also perform Celtic. http://www.celticmusic.com/home.shtml

   well, I think Gaelic is different from Celtic, Gaelic is an actual language, while Celtic is the term for people from I think the Iron Age.
   And all you have to do is type in The Cheiftans into ANY search engine to get the best band in the world!

   I like Celtic music, I refer to it as River dancing music.
   What about Sinead O’Connor, I listen to her music.

   If you can not find what you are looking for on the internet then go to your local library and maybe checkout the history behind it . Knowing somethings back ground can give you a better understanding.

   “Celtic” is used to denote Irish music in the U.S. and Britain–where there is discomfort with things Irish.
   In Europe, the term is used to apply to the music of the Celts, who occupied a broad swath of land including France and Galicia in Spain. It is rather hard to pin down all music that might be “Celtic” in origin, as it is to write the real history of the Celts.
   According to the Wikipedia article on Celtic music, “Gaelic music” is a term used by some to distinguish between the Gaelic, meaning Irish, Scottish, and Manx group of pieces and the Brythonic, meaning Breton, Welsh and Cornish group. These differ in their range and in the scale used.
   I suspect this Celtic/Gaelic distinction is not made by the average listener, but by the inner circle of musicians.
