Best Answer

In an average symphony there are 4 movements. The first is usualy in sonata form, and is usualy a lot more serious than the rest of the movements. The second is always a slow movement. The third could be a minuet and trio, a scherzo or a intermezzo or other light hearted peice. The last is usualy a rondo or theme and variation or sonata form peice, usualy a peice with much more excitement than the rest.

What is a symphony with two movements called?

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.
