great stuff to actually learn what the Tanpura IS and how it works ,i.e. how it produces its distincts sound. I can imagine musicians distorting the harmonics on purpose as well ,fascinating .
Ah! Thank you Anna for this video. Really helped me. But I find it difficult both playing the Tambura and keeping my talam in place. How do I fix that?🙏
Great video. Please make another one on how to maintain the tanpura. For ex, How to store it for a short term (every day riyaaz), the long term (box or not?), Store it tuned or loosened? How to clean? etc.
Nicely explained! Thank you! It would be great if you can do one more in the Tanpura series showing it in action when singing - showing the cadence and speed of playing.
in my Ramjee tambura has a wooden bridge, and the pancham's jiva is almost hopeless regardless of string. I need to file the bridge apparently to fix it. Do you know how? btw Amir Khansahab played the tambura over his lap at home.
Thank you for that piece of information. With respect to your bridge, a complete service may be necessary. If it still does not help, then you may need to get a new bridge.
Isn’t the male tanpura should be tuned to lower octave or mandra saptak sa. I think it’s tuned middle octave pa n higher octave sa as judi. Correct me if I’m wrong.
Had been waiting for this episode for a while now! Informative as ever! Love this series :)
Thank you very much! This episode did take longer than expected. The remaining two parts must be out during the next week.
Very clear and informative for those starting out in the world of indian classical music - thankyou Rithvikbhai!!!
Welcome!
Such a beautiful and precious talk. Thank you.
You are very welcome!
Such a deeply spiritual instrument.
I whole heartedly agree

Bhimsen ji used to always sing with 4 taanpuras on the last day of sawaii gandharva fest in Pune. It used to be magical...
Truly magical.
Very nice Sir
Thank you so much for these tutorial videos. Can I ask who made this tanpura for you? The sound is amazing.
Most of them are older Tamburas, many decades old. The Miraj ones were made by Faroukh Ismailsaheb Satarmaker from Miraj.
Hi Rithvik. Thank you for this informative series. Can you share the brand of the stands that you've used for your two tamburas in the background?
They are not any one specific brand. Just generic ones found in local instrument stores here in Chennai
🙏❤️
