The bodhrán, pronounced “bow-rawn,” is a distinctive drum with deep cultural roots. This iconic instrument, made from goatskin stretched over a wooden frame, is central to Irish traditional music. Its origins trace back to ancient Ireland, where it was used in ceremonies and celebrations. Today, there are various types of bodhráns, each with unique features.

Love the Irish Bouzouki and Bodhran on 'The Flogging Reel'! They add such a rich, rhythmic texture to the piece. www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1Ln0RB5jdM
