The primary objective of this venture was to popularize the kritits of Maharaja Sree Swathi Thirunal. The institution was renamed as Sree Swathi Thirunal College of Music in 1962.

==Courses==

Earlier, a three-year certificate course in Music - "Gayaka and Gayika" for male and female students respectively was provided in the institute. In 1961, a committee, which included eminent musicians and music educators like Mrs. Lekshmi Narayanan Nair, Sri. Semmangudi Srinivasa Iyer, Dr. Musuri Subrahmanya Iyer and Prof. P. Sambamurthy constituted by the Government of Kerala prepared a comprehensive curriculum and syllabus for the course in this institution. Later "Ganabhooshanam and Ganapraveen", (four-year Diploma course) were introduced. The college was affiliated to the University of Kerala in 1999 and a unique 'Bachelor in Performing Arts' course was initiated.

Presently the college has entered into new avenues, announcing 8 new courses as part of continuing education programme. The courses are meant for those who have an aptitude in learning music, those who would like to go for advanced studies in group kritis, ragamalikas, and ragam-tanam-pallavis and for those who are interested in 'music direction'.
