Boduberu – The Heart of Traditional Maldivian Music and Dance
Boduberu. For me, the background music to my island life. The rhythms grew dear to my heart and accompanied me through the years during which I lived and worked on Maldivian islands. The bodu beru is a Maldivian drum, made of wood from coconut tree trunk, and often grouped in trios. The instrument is used to accompany the traditional dance of the same name, the Boduberu.
