What movement of a symphony is based on a dance form?
Early classical symphonies included a minuet and trio movement, which is by definition dance-based. Later symphonies (from Beethoven onwards) tended to replace the minuet by a scherzo (meaning 'joke'), which is usually strongly rhythmical and may be dancelike.
Third movement of a Classical symphony?
Usually it was a minuet (from French "menuet"; in Italian "minuetto"), but sometimes other, normally a dance or a short sequence of dances, before the fourth (finale), that was commonly an allegro, as the first was as well.

Is scherzo an adjective?
The term 'scherzo' in music is a noun.It's Italian, literally meaning 'joke', and describes a passage of movement played in a lively, bright, quick manner:'Many symphonies feature a scherzo movement.'; 'The scherzo form replaced the traditional nineteenth-century minuet and trio.'The term 'scherzando', literally, 'joking', means to play, or played, in a lighthearted, playful manner, can be used as either an adjective or an adverb:'The next movement will be played scherzando - that is, lightly.'; 'How did the recording bring out the scherzando string section?'
What are the characteristics of a minuet and trio?
A minuet, sometimes spelled menuet, was a social dance of French origin for two persons, usually in 3/4 time, with a strong downbeat.The minuet become more and more stylised during the 18th century, being incorporated into Baroque Suites (such as those by Bach, Handel, Telemann) and later into the Classical symphony and sonata (Mozart, Haydn, early Beethoven).Minuet and trio form in classical symphonies, string quartets and sonatas consists of two minuets with a da capo (back the beginning) at the end of the second minuet in order to finish with the first minuet and give the form an overall ABA or ternary structure. Both minuets are in rounded binary form, with two repeated sections, A and B, where A returns briefly at the end of the B section, hence 'rounded.'|: A :: B (A) :: C :: D (C) : A | B (A)|The trio is so called because originally the second minuet would be played by a smaller ensemble, possibly of as few as three players. It is generally reduced to three structure lines, and is lighter and sweeter than the minuet sections.At the turn of the 18th/19th centuries the minuet gave way to the more rumbustious scherzo (as introduced by Beethoven).
What form was usually used for the third movement of a classical symphony it was a stately dance movement an aba form?
The form is known as minuet and trio. Originally the a-section minuet was repeated, followed by the b-section which was a trio for three instruments, played and repeated, followed by a return of the a-section minuet. Over a relatively short time, the intervening trio was augmented and became simply a contrasting section to the minuet.
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.
