Where can I find a good, concise and understandable explanation of the sāmavedic musical notation?
I found some rather brief or cryptic comments on the matter in Renou's "Inde classique" § 547-548 and Burnell (Introduction to the Ārṣeya Brāhmaṇa, p. xxvi-xxvii), but these are not sufficient for my purpose (which is to give the best possible answer to a student's question).
This doesn't need to be exhaustive. A good and simple description of the Jaiminīya's way, for example, would be enough.
Thanks in advance,
F. Voegeli
