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)]

The classical concerto differs from the symphony in that it does not have a movement that the symphony has. What is that movement?

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.

What is a musical piece in which one solo instrument(such as piano or violin ) is ac accompained by orchestra?

A concerto is a work in three movements, rather than the four movements of a symphony, in which a solo instrument or ensemble is accompanied by an orchestra. The concerto developed earlier than the symphony. As in the symphony, the first movement of the classical concerto is generally in sonata-allegro form, followed by a slow movement and a finale usually in rondo form. The concerto had arisen in the Baroque period, in two types. One was the concerto grosso, in which a small ensemble within the orchestra is contrasted to and accompanied by the full complement. The other was the solo concerto as described.
