👉 A pure fundamental tone instrument - The frequency 432 Hz is considered the "frequency of harmony". Unlike the standard tuning of 440 Hz, it is said to be closer to the Earth's natural vibrations and to promote a state of deep well-being.

It works like a small harmonium without keys.

You can create a powerful, continuous tone or chord on it. The sound is similar to that of an accordion.

The shruti-box, or surpeti, is an Indian free-reed musical instrument. It is a song guide with variable drones operated by a hand bellows, similar to a harmonium without a keyboard. An electronic version also exists.
Bill
A leather or cardboard bellows is attached to a rectangular wooden soundbox.

Air escapes through several simple brass reeds (between 4 and 16) that can be opened or closed as desired. Air must be pumped manually by operating the bellows. There is also a mute.

Game
It is a small, inexpensive instrument for practice, replacing a tampura, a harmonium, or a drone from a shehnai or nĂągasvaram. It is also sometimes found playing alongside the tampura in concerts.
