A Tambura (or Tanpura) in tune, is the Key to Indian classical music. Tuning the Tambura itself is an Art. In fact, there are many Tambura Vidwans and Vidushis who have trained in tuning and strumming the Tambura. As an Artiste, practicing and performing with a Tambura helps one refine their own pitch control, and strive for Perfect Pitch! #snmusic #tambura #thambura #tanpura #pitch #sruthi #sruti #carnatic #karnatik #carnaticmusic #indianinstruments #drone #key #indianmusic #onesecondreel #sand
