The Samaveda contains the earliest tradition of music from India, which is 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 has also included all of its important commentaries. In this work, B. R. Sharma presents an accented edition that is based on manuscripts collected from all over India and Europe. Its Padapatha and the commentaries of Madhava, Bharatasvamin, and Sayana comprise three volumes totaling 2,500 pages. These volumes contain the Purvarcika and Uttararcika portions of the text. The third volume, complete with the indexes and a detailed introduction to the whole work, will be published soon.
