-Riphean music is based on folk songs called ''stērvėnje'' (literally "old song"). A famous stērvėnje is "Wexraskaunipe" (Evening Beauty), which has been set to music several times by Riphean composers.
-A popular Riphean folk instrument is the ''kautil'', a 7 string harp resembling the Finnish kantele but with movable bridges.
-Vocal and choral music is extremely popular in Riphea, so much so that Riphea is often called "vėnjecema" (the land of song). Choral composition is a very rich tradition and many public figures in Riphea are also choral composers and songwriters, an example being the current prime minister of Riphea, Wėnima Retaszūnu.
-==Internalism and Riphean music==
-The Nōje Niđjaste movement had a transformative effect on Riphean music and resulted in the creation of a new folk style, believed by most Ripheans to be a revival of an older style. The first emergence of avant-garde music in Irta Europe was a result of this movement, with Riphean composers during the Internalist era eschewing older forms. Internalist eclecticism was very much apparent in Riphean music too, with composers drawing from Azalic, Persian and even Chinese music, and both Riphean and Azalic diasporas in Irta America have contributed to the popularity of the Azalic flamenco works of Redwen Arantzazumab.
-A well-known Riphean Internalist composer is Lule Vrijastukte, whose works include ''Crosstalk'' for cello solo and ''Sequence'', a suite of solo pieces for various instruments (analogous to Berio's Sequenza in our timeline).
-Avant-garde music spread to Remonitionist countries in Irta Europe from there (roughly the same as Germanic- and Balto-Finnic-speaking countries in our timeline, plus some Slavic ones) and a distinctly Remonitionist style of avant garde music emerged which relied not just on eclecticism but the imagining of new musical cultures, in keeping with the multiversalist spirit of Remonitionism.
-==Influence==
-Riphean musical styles have influenced music all over Irta. Riphean instruments and scales are adapted in parts of Irta America which have a strong Riphean diaspora.
-Places outside Europe with Riphean diasporas are usually influenced by post-Internalist Riphean music. Pre-Internalist Riphean influences are more likely to show up in Irta European music, with composers often writing Riphean rhapsodies, such as the ones by Sebasca Humja and Abigail Drockva. Dance forms such as the ___ are often used in these pieces but are nowadays not popular in actual Riphean music.
