Riccare
Riccardo or Riccardo is an important instrumental music throughout the Baroque era, written in the form of 'imitation', derived from the Italian meaning 'to explore'. Riccare was created in the early 16th century by applying the style of vocal moteto to instrumental music. At first he wrote for the lute, then for the organ and instrumental ensemble, gradually developed into his own form of instrumental music and became an important predecessor of the fugue. In the early 17th century, Riccarie was a single subject with a clear structure by Svelelink, Proberger, and Buxtehude, and gradually became fugitive. . In the 16th century, he also wrote the name of Ricercare in edicts, improvisational songs, and prelude lute songs.
