Symphony - definition of Symphony in Encyclopedia (2518 words)
Another important progenitor of the symphony was the ripieno concerto - a relatively little explored form resembling a concerto for strings and continuo, but with no solo instruments.
The earliest known ripieno concerti are by Giuseppe Torelli (his set of six, opus five, 1698).
However, unlike the ripieno concerto, which uses the usual ritornello form of the concerto, at least the first movement of these symphonies is in some sort of binary form.
