History

How about some dates for the origin? JKeck (talk) 23:29, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

Possible duplicated article

This article is very similar to drone music. It may be preferable to perform a merge and use one of them as a redirection page.--Isacdaavid (talk) 03:22, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

The articles are not at all similar. This article is about an ancient musical device or element. Drone music is about a genre that developed in the latter half of the 20th century. __ Just plain Bill (talk) 03:50, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

Totally agree with original point. They are only 'not at all similar' in that they cover different time frames. A merged article would offer a complete chronology. 'Drone music' should at least link back. RubyJester (talk) 14:39, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Need to look at the Chopin mazurka reference

It says "all five contain a drone" - apparently referring to the 5 mazurkas of Opus 7 but this isn't specified. Chopin wrote 59 mazurkas. So probably Opus 7 should be specified, or better yet, the locations of the drones in these 5 mazurkas specified. I'd do it myself, but I'm not a mazurka expert and don't want to get it wrong ("first, do no harm"). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kevintimba (talk • contribs) 06:02, 6 December 2018 (UTC)

There are 4 opus 7 mazurkas (link to score: https://imslp.eu/files/imglnks/euimg/5/57/IMSLP911727-PMLP02286-E911180_18-26-Chopin--mazurkas-ed-Ekier.pdf ) and none of them contain a drone. This example should be deleted from the article 67.190.4.54 (talk) 22:28, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
