Bura traditional music is facing existential threat due to the influence of modernity and assimilative tendencies of the cultures of other ethnic groups. If concerted effort is not made to arrest the situation, the culture of the people will soon disappear. Musical performance is central to the growth and development of the people’s culture and any existential threat to their musical performance would reflect on their culture. This research work therefore studies Bura musical instruments, the process of construction and the occasions to which they are deployed. The musical instruments are identified and analyzed, the raw materials, the processes of their construction and the occasions to which the instruments are deployed are discussed. For the ease of discussion, the Bura musical instruments are classified in this discussion according to the sounds they produce using the Hornbostel-Sachs model. Thus, the instruments are grouped under the following classifications: the membranophones, the idiophones and chordophones. The outcome of the study shows that Bura people have highly talented musicians and instrumental craftsmen and that the musical instruments are deployed primarily for entertainment and for spiritual and martial purposes.
