A highly-ornamented style of solo, unaccompanied singing in the Irish tradition. Sean nós literally means old style, therefore it is incorrect to say "the sean nós style", but more correct simply to refer to something as sean nós.
Sean nós songs are relatively simple in structure, but the performance involves substantial ornamental and rhythmic variation from verse to verse.
