A sonata is a three-movement piece for solo piano or any solo instrument with or without piano accompaniment. Sonata-allegro refers to a particular form originally used in one-movement pieces, later incorporated in the three-movement sonata which was named for the form. A typical sonata-allegro form is I first theme, expansion II second theme, expansion III development of the opening theme or themes IV recapitulation of the themes V coda Sonata-allegro originally included tonal relationships between the first and second themes, tonal freedom during the development, and tonal unity of the recapitulation and coda.
Very commonly, the first movement of a symphony appears in Sonata form. If it is one of the later symphonies (Mozart, for example), it will likely have 4 movements. The second would be some type of slow movement in a binary form. The 3rd would often be a minuet and trio, followed by a closing movement in Sonata form again.
That depends, although sonata's are always for one or a very small group of instruments. Most commonly, piano solo, violin and piano, cello and piano, flute and piano, a wind instrument, a string instrument and a piano... It varies.. But its always a small ensemble.
