Context of Drone

Tonality may be defined as a musical system revolving around a single tone or note, which functions as a center of gravity: it is a focal point around which the rest of the notes are organized and which serves as the place where a piece of music begins and ends. Classical Indian music and many kinds of Middle Eastern music, for example, depend upon a single tone droned throughout an entire piece to provide a stable tonal base. Western music works in a different way, producing tension and release as the music moves alternatively away from and toward a tonal center.
