Sarves Thiru – “Harmony: Lokah Samastah” imbues a sense of peace and harmony

Growing up in Malaysia, Sarves Thiru’s journey with music started when she was eight years old, studying Carnatic music and spending a few years learning the veena and piano. Moving to the city, she met up with Srimathi Vijayalakshmi Kulaveerasingam, who became a driving force behind Sarves Thiru’s musical journey. On moving to the United Kingdom, Sarves was introduced to Srimathi Sivasakthi Sivanesan, who taught her music at the Bhavan in London. She also got initiated into Kriya Yoga and began meditating at the time, a practice that continues to inspire her music.

After an extended break Sarves Thiru found her way back to music during the pandemic and started taking classes again with Srimathi Sivasakthi Sivanesan, who sadly departed in 2021. Based in London with her family Sarves is realizing her dream of composing and sharing original music. Following her debut single release in July 2022, and being featured in new age charts, specialized playlists, several blogs, publications and radio airplay, she has released her second single, “Harmony: Lokah Samastah”.
