Re: [Taalpulse-user] Expanding the options

[Jonathan D. <jon...@jo...>]

Hello team,
Yes I think Sarangi would be much appreciated by people worldwide; I 
often get enquiries for lehara for that instrument, based upon the 
one movie clip on my site. I have a sample of Ustand Sultan khan 
playing a drut tintal lehara , which I looped for my demo movie, but 
I am not sure that this would be approved by the record company...!
Thanks for your good work thus far,

Jonathan
