How many themes generally occurred in a sonata form movement?
In most sonatas, there are two themes that occur, the first and second subject. These are played and sometimes repeated. Following that there is a section of developement, in which both themes are changed and fused in various ways. Following that is the recapitulation, where the themes are repeated, often with minor variation. A perfect example of this kind of sonata is Schubert's Unfinished symphony, mvt 1. This said, smaller chamber music sonatas have been known to only have one subject, and romantic music sucha as that of Dvorak often had three or more subjects.

Most symphonies have four movements, although composers are free to give their symphonies as many or as few movements as they like.

Since that time it has varied more. For instance, Samuel Barber's first symphony is in one continuous movement with four differing sections. Cesar Franck's is probably the most famous three-movement symphony.

How many movements does a symphony have?
A symphony typically has four movements: the first movement is usually fast and dramatic, the second is slow and lyrical, the third is a dance-like scherzo or minuet, and the fourth is often a lively and triumphant finale.
What is the slow movement of a symphony?
The second movement of a symphony is typically the slow movement. Many (not all) symphonies have one or more movements which are intended to be played at a slow (or slowish) tempo. They are usually of a lyrical character, in contrast to the other movements, which are likely to be faster and/or more vigorous in style. In a four-movement symphony, such a movement is likely to be one of the inner movements; that is, the second or third. The above is such a generalisation, however, that it is better to avoid using the phrase 'the slow movement', which encourages lazy thinking. So-called 'slow' movements can take a range of tempo indications, some of which are not really slow, and all have other characteristics by which they can more usefully be identified. Many such movements are marked Andante, which is not slow but midway between fast and slow. A description such as 'the Larghetto', 'the Adagio', or even just 'the third movement', shows that you have paid some attention to the symphony you are discussing. Bear in mind that by no means all symphonies fall neatly into the four-movement pattern typified by Allegro, Andante, Scherzo, Allegro. Beethoven's Ninth, Schumann's Second, and Elgar's First, to cite but three examples, have an Adagio movement which is placed third. Suk's Asrael symphony has five movements, four of which are marked Andante or Adagio.
