The tanpura is a long-necked, stringed instrument commonly used in Indian classical music. Its primary purpose is to provide a continuous drone accompaniment, serving as the fundamental pitch reference for vocalists and instrumentalists. The tanpura typically has four strings, which are plucked in a specific pattern to produce a rich, resonant drone sound. It has a hollow, gourd-shaped body and a long wooden neck. The tanpura's drone serves to create a harmonic backdrop, enhancing the melodic and rhythmic elements of the music. Its serene and meditative sound is integral to the atmosphere of Indian classical performances.
