Movements are distinguished by the silence between the main piece and the movement. There could be more or less than four, but each may have a different tempo, key, rhythym, and harmonization. They can be called the first, second and so on, movements of the piece.
While there are no rules governing tempo (or anything else) for the movements in a symphony most follow the pattern:
# Allegro - (fast around 120 - 160 bpm) # Moderato - (moderate around 100 - 120 bpm) # Minuet/Scherzo - (Triple meter at dancing speed 120 - 160 bpm)
# Any tempo, composers generaly use the last movement to revisit ideas and themes from the previous movements so it's hard to say.
There are generally 4 movements in a Symphony:
1) Allegro
2) Slow (Adagio, andante, lento...)
3) Scherzo + Trio or Menuetto + Trio
4) Very Fast (Allegro, Presto...)
The correct order of movements in a symphony is the order in which the composer puts them. How could it be otherwise? There are no rules about this, although there are certain conventions, which have nothing to do with right and wrong, and which are often not observed.
1st Movement) Usually fast in Sonata form.
2nd Movement) Usually slow and lyrical, either in Sonata or ternary form.
3rd Movement) Usually a trio or scherzo
4th Movement) Usually up-tempo, sometimes with variations
1st Mvt - a long, often serious or majestic peice usualy in sonata form.
2nd Mvt - the slow movement
3rd Mvt - can be a minuet and trio, scherzo, intermezzo or any other light hearted, playful peice.
4th Mvt - a long, energetic peice in rondo, theme and variation or sonata form.
The four movements of a sonata are: 1) Sonata allegro form 2) a slow, melodic movement 3) a minuet/trio or in later classical period compositions a scherzo and 4) a rondo.
Opening movement (sonata), Slow movement, Minuet, Closing movement (sonata or rondo)
allegro, largo, minute, allegro/presto
No
Whatever the person that wrote it wants to call it. Symphonies can have all sorts of variations in number of movements. Stravinsky wrote a piece he called "Symphony in Three Movements". Mozart's "Prague" Symphony (No. 38) has only three movements and is sometimes called the symphony without a minuet. Schubert's "Unfinished" Symphony only has two movements, thought presumably it was not planned that way. In the final consideration, it's best simply to go with whatever the composer called it.
