BORIA is a traditional song
and dance sketch or dance drama, found mainly in Penang and originating from India. It is
described as a traditional quatrain song form or pantun which is
performed in a western music style and with dance forms such as quick-step,
rhumba or soul. Although it was probably brought in by Indian Muslim traders of
long ago, it has today come to be identified mainly with the Penang Malay
community. The violin, maracas and tabla are used to accompany the singing,
although the western pop band may also be used.
