Boria


serenemaklong.blogspot.com




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.
