What it is
A music-school blog post explaining shruti as the reference pitch and as the tiny pitch intervals of Indian music, how the drone sets the tonic, and why this matters when learning.
Why it is useful here
A plain-language second view of the tonic and drone idea, useful before the swara lessons.
