In the romantic period, starting at the end of the classical period with the late Beethoven (see E. T. A. Hoffmann), the sonata form was used to be seen as formal and insufficient to express the wide range of emotions. Schubert, who admired Beethoven and his sonatas, composed many, but with the time the symphonic poems and other more free genres were preferred.
Still most symphonies used the sonata form, which has been evolved by composers like Mahler or later Berg to fulfil the new pretensions.

∙ 9y agoNo, in fact the Classical Period is when the Sonata-Allegro was first formalized and when it had its most prevalent use. It held on fairly well through the Romantic Period, and has been diminishing in popularity among composers since then, although it is still a viable form and is occasionally used. It's not suited to today's minimalist and free-form music, so it's somewhat in disfavor now.
