The "Samaveda" contains the earliest tradition of music from
India. It presents largely Rigvedic textual material in a form
arranged for singing in the solemn Srauta ritual. Since the first
editions by Theodor Benfey (1848) and Satyavrata Samasrami
(1874-1899), there has been no complete, accented edition that also
included all its important commentaries. The present edition is
based on manuscripts collected from all over India and Europe. B.
R. Sharma, Dean of Samaveda Studies, presents the accented text,
its Padapatha, and the commentaries of Madhava, Bharata-Svamin, and
Sayana in three volumes totaling 2,500 pages. These contain the
Purvarcika and Uttaracika portions of the text, and a third volume
the indexes and a detailed introduction to the whole work. Vols. 2
and 3 to appear soon.
