What does a concerto mean?

A Concerto is a type of classical work where usually a single instrument (but sometimes more, for example, a double or triple concerto) is the solo instrument, and a piano or orchestra accompanies. Most concertos go in 3 movements, with the tempo arranged as Fast-Slow-Fast, respectively. There are many different styles the concertos can have. Compare Mozart Flute concerto No. 1 and the Ibert Flute Concerto, and both may be in 3 movements, but organization is very different, because they were in different eras of classical music. Sometimes, concertos don't even follow the 3 mvmt. system. I personally have heard a piano concerto in one movement, and another in 2. Elgar's Cello concerto is in 4.

How many movements are in a Classical concerto?

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)]
