There are usually three movements in a concerto, the first and last being in most cases faster than the middle movement. Needless to say, some composers have deviated from this pattern.
[The following information, posted by a previous editor, seems to be the answer to a different question, concerning sonata form:
: 1) Exposition (the theme is introduced, but in 2 different keys) 2) Development (the themes are developed/varied) 3) Recapitulation (the themes are reintroduced, but this time in the same key)]
As a general rule, a classical symphony has four movements and a classical concerto has three. The nature of their respective first movements and finales is likely to be similar in each case. Each genre will also usually have a slower, more lyrical movement. What a symphony will also have, and a concerto will lack, is a movement cast as a minuet and trio or scherzo and trio.

The key difference between a concerto and a symphony in classical music is that a concerto features a solo instrument or group of instruments accompanied by an orchestra, while a symphony is a large-scale orchestral composition without any soloists. Additionally, a concerto typically has multiple movements showcasing the soloist's virtuosity, while a symphony is usually structured in four movements following a specific form.

The key difference between a sonata and a concerto in classical music is how they feature solo instruments. In a sonata, the solo instrument is typically accompanied by a piano or small ensemble, while in a concerto, the solo instrument is accompanied by a full orchestra. Additionally, a concerto usually has multiple movements, each showcasing the soloist's virtuosity, while a sonata typically has three or four movements with more equal distribution of musical material between the soloist and accompaniment.
The most common form is three movements.
The key differences between a sonata, concerto, and symphony in classical music lie in their structure and performance. A sonata is a piece for a solo instrument or small group of instruments, typically in three or four movements. A concerto features a solo instrument accompanied by an orchestra, with a dialogue between the soloist and the orchestra. A symphony is a large-scale orchestral work, usually in four movements, showcasing the full orchestra without a soloist.

Three movements is a typical formal structure for a baroque Concerto Grosso.
In classical music, a symphony is a large-scale orchestral composition typically consisting of multiple movements and showcasing the entire orchestra. A concerto, on the other hand, features a solo instrument (such as a piano or violin) accompanied by an orchestra, highlighting the soloist's virtuosity and interaction with the ensemble.
The key difference between a symphony and a concerto in classical music is that a symphony is a large orchestral composition typically consisting of multiple movements played by the entire orchestra, while a concerto is a composition that features a solo instrument accompanied by an orchestra. In a concerto, the soloist often takes on a more prominent role, showcasing their virtuosity and musical skill, while in a symphony, the focus is on the collective sound and interplay of the entire orchestra.
