tanpura / tambura

Me playing on tanpura (an Indian instrument), sometimes also called a tambura.
It's tuned to C (either major or minor as it's first and fifth).
Actually meant this to be a different file. I'll add that as well.

Thanks for this. These have helped me immensely for reference while working on a Karnatic vocals sample set!
