Saraswati bãni is Shweta Jhaveri's creation in Hindustani classical vocal music. It collectively presents her Khayãl, Dhrupad, Tarãnã, Chatarang, Bhajan and Rãga creations sung by her since her teenage for the past 35 years. Preserving North-Indian classical vocal music under the Mewati traditions through concerts & recordings, Shweta-ji has also vocally performed her compositions in many rãga-s such as Jog, Abhogi, Yaman, chandrakauns, PuriyãDhanãshri and her rãga creations such as KrishnaBhairavi and Nirmohi.

In Hindustani classical music the term bãni in Hindi is the same as vãni meaning musical language or style and also relates to dhrupad. The North-Indian bãni is different than the South-Indian bãni. Shweta being one of the names of or derived from Saraswati, this creation is named so and dedicates to music.
