N1  - Śaṅgītasamayasāra is the first work on music offered to the public in the Trivandrum Sanskrit Series. A manuscript of this work in Malayalam characters about two or three centuries old was obtained from the Pujnar Palace in the year 1917: and as no other manuscript has been procured notwithstanding my long search for it, this edition is prepared with the help of the solitary manuscript. The author of the work is Parsvadeva as is evident from the colophon at the end of the manuscript. It is not known when and where the author lived but it is probable that he was of Jain persuasion in as much as he bore the name of Parsvanatha, one of the Jain Tirthankaras
