Ripieno
The ripieno ( ital. 'Full' or 'the filling'), abbreviated: R, rip., Is an 18th century name for the full orchestra ( tutti ) in the concerto grosso , the full organ ( organo pleno ) and in general for all multi-cast voices that are in contrast to the solo voices; also in the choir . As ripieno or tutti orchestral musicians or singers are called without solo tasks accordingly. For example, on April 10, 1807, Carl Friedrich Zelter founded the Ripienschule for instrumental music with ten instrumentalists in the Sing-Akademie zu Berlin .
Today the word is still used for the brass in the orchestra. The basso ripieno requires the reinforcement of the tutti parts or ritornelle .
Senza ripieno (also senza ripieni ) means that only the soloists or first desks of an orchestra should play. In the performance practice of the baroque Concerto grosso, however, this does not mean that the accompanying Ripieno has to be silent; rather, the Concertino , which is already solo, isthen only accompanied by a small group of the Ripieno.
In the cast list of English brass bands there is always a Repiano Cornet within the Cornet Section. The main task of this is to reinforce melodies or other passages in the solo and soprano cornet either in the same or in the lower octave. The sound shift from ripieno to repiano is probably due to the English pronunciation of the former and the resulting incorrect spelling.
In organ building , Ripieno has been the Italian name for the plenum of an organ since around 1900 .
