Started in 2003 by founder president Ajai R. Singh, it is based on the philosophy that almost anyone can sing, provided he/she is provided an atmosphere of positivity, encouragement and empathetic mentoring.[2]. It believes in a fraternity of music lovers and the universality of music.[3] Members are given a theme one month in advance and they prepare songs for presentation based on these themes.
All Swara Sampadites are supposed to take an oath stating they are 'dedicated to understanding the Science of Music and the Art of Singing' [4].
Released in February 2005, this is a book on how to become a good singer and quality listener[5]. ISBN 81-901406-2-0.
Two Chapters of Swara Sampada have been formed, called 'Swara Sampada Mulund (East) and Swara Sampada (Joshi-Bedekar College)[6].
The local media has covered the organisation from time to time[7].
