 Samaveda - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Samaveda (Sanskrit: सामवेद, sāmaveda, a tatpurusha compound ot sāman "ritual chant" + veda "knowledge"), is third in the usual order of enumeration of the four Vedas, the ancient core Hindu scriptures.
This part is less disjointed than part I, and is generally arranged in triplets whose first verse is often the repetition of a verse that has occurred in part I. The Samaveda survives in a single shakha or recension, the Kauthuma shakha, with a second shakha, Jaiminiya (or Talavakara), surviving fragmentarily, the Jaiminiya Samhita.
In these compiled hymns there are frequent variations, of more or less importance, from the text of the Rigveda as we now possess it which variations, although in some cases they are apparently explanatory, seem in others to be older and more original than the readings of the Rigveda.

The custom is to enumerate Yajurveda and Samaveda after the Rigveda, and mention Atharvaveda last.

 Hymns of the Samaveda: trans. Into English with a popular Commentary by Ralph T.H. Griffith
According to the traditional view, the Samaveda had originally about a thousand sankhas or branches but today only a few of them are extent, the rest are believed to have been lost before the text itself was reduced to writing.
On account of melodious nature of its verses which were intended to be sung by the udgatri or chanter-priest during the course of the performance of grand sacrificial rituals connected chiefly with the preparation of juice out of the sacred Soma creeper, the giver of mystic joy, it had special importance.
Samaveda, which mainly consists of musical hymns largely drawn from the Rgveda, the oldest of the four Vedic texts, is only next in sanctity and liturgical significance to the latter.
