Definition
Italian word meaning 'research' or 'search.' In academic contexts, it refers to scholarly investigation or inquiry.
Etymology
From Italian ricercare, meaning 'to seek again,' composed of ri- (re-) and cercare (to search), ultimately from Latin circare, related to circus (circle), suggesting the idea of going around to find something.
Kelly Says
The musical 'ricerca' or 'ricercar' was a Renaissance instrumental form that was literally a 'search' for musical ideas - composers would explore and develop themes in an improvisatory style, making it a perfect marriage of the word's literal and metaphorical meanings.
