QUE SIGNIFIE RIFF EN ANGLAIS

Ostinato

Ostinato

Dans la musique, un ostinato est un motif ou une expression qui répète constamment dans la même voix musicale, habituellement au même titre. La pièce la plus connue fondée sur ostinato peut être le Boléro de Ravel. L'idée répétée peut être un motif rythmique, une partie d'une mélodie ou une mélodie complète en soi. Les deux ostinatos et ostinati sont des formes plurielles anglaises acceptées, ce dernier reflétant l'étymologie italienne du mot. À proprement parler, ostinati devrait avoir une répétition exacte, mais dans l'usage courant, le terme couvre la répétition avec variation et développement, comme l'altération d'une ligne ostinato pour s'adapter à des harmonies ou des clés changeantes. "Si la cadence peut être considérée comme le berceau de la tonalité, les patrons de ostinato peuvent être considérés comme le terrain de jeu dans lequel il a grandi et s'est assuré de soi". -Edward E. Lewinsky Dans le contexte de la musique cinématographique, Claudia Gorbman définit un ostinato comme une forme mélodique ou rythmique répétée, pour propulser des scènes qui manquent d'action visuelle dynamique.

In music, an ostinato is a motif or phrase that persistently repeats in the same musical voice, usually at the same pitch. The best-known ostinato-based piece may be Ravel's Boléro. The repeating idea may be a rhythmic pattern, part of a tune, or a complete melody in itself. Both ostinatos and ostinati are accepted English plural forms, the latter reflecting the word's Italian etymology. Strictly speaking, ostinati should have exact repetition, but in common usage, the term covers repetition with variation and development, such as the alteration of an ostinato line to fit changing harmonies or keys. "If the cadence may be regarded as the cradle of tonality, the ostinato patterns can be considered the playground in which it grew strong and self-confident." —Edward E. Lewinsky Within the context of film music, Claudia Gorbman defines an ostinato as a repeated melodic or rhythmic figure, to propel scenes which lack dynamic visual action.
