There are bad drones — people who drone on and on about an idea.
There are good drones — banjos, and bagpipes are too examples.
I never understood the attraction to bagpipe music. I admire how the performers of the instrument circular breathe.
Musically, I love how a drone adds both tension and release to a piece. As you listen to the piece below, you’ll notice how the drone notes change the vibe — from pensive and mysterious to joyous.
Perhaps the pensive is the doubt and despair, and the joyous sound is the celebration of banishment.
Either way… I hope you find the music as stimulating as I did.
