North Carolina Swaralaya was founded in 2005 by Abhiram Chivukula, Ranganathan Rajaram, and Sai Srikanth to provide a bi-monthly venue for triangle-area artists to perform Carnatic Music. Sustained by the generosity of Smt. Meena and Sri. Krishna Rajagopal for 10 years and the enthusiasm and interest of the triangle community, Swaralaya has evolved into a Sabha for professional and other out-of-town artists as well.
