General definition (in Hinduism)
: WikiPedia: Hinduism1) The udgatar is the chanter of hymns set to melodies (s膩man) drawn from the Samaveda. The udgatar, like the Hotar, chants the introductory, yajna and eulogistic verses. These three types of hymns are identified with the three kinds of vital breath Prana, Apana and Vyana in the body and the udgatar himself contemplates on the vital breath.

This was a specialized role in the major soma sacrifices: a characteristic function of the ud驳腻迟峁� was to sing hymns in praise of the invigorating properties of soma pavam膩na, the freshly pressed juice of the soma plant.
