strophic, less commonly strophical
adjective
2 (of a song) having identical or related music in each verse
Compare: through-composed

through-composed
adjective
(Music) of or relating to a song in stanzaic form, in which different music is provided for each stanza
Compare: strophic [2]

I think it is incorrect to use the term in regards to something that does not have verses or stanzas. Not that this really matters at all. We know the composer meant that each movement is performed attaca, with cadenzas connecting each movement.
