Ideas for Marimba Ostinatos for "gat"(middle section) 
Each one will play twice, 6 in total
Number 2 and Number 4 are variations on 1 and 3

FS - Ostinatos.gat

Initial idea for the drone and chords to try and create a deep backdrop for the melody instrument
The chords on the vibraphone will be played with bows so will sound a lot different

FS - Drone And Chords.alap

Tabla part is based on rupak tal which has 7 beats (3+2+2) 
Will form baseline for jhalla (3rd section) 
Will probably use the marimba parts as a thread to modulate halfway through or something

FS - Tabla And Marimba Basic. Jhalla

FS- ostinato baseline.gat

FS- Fixed Melody. Jhalla

Opening: Marimba chords are rolled 
Haven't finished cello part yet
