Last movements from concertos were usually having a fast tempo as in baroque period. A rondo finale was popular in classical period. The next popular form for final movement was sonata form.

Depends on the instrumentation. For classical pipe organ, it is typically this:

  • Maestoso
  • Adagio
  • Recitando
  • Vivace

In a sonata for piano or for an instrument with piano accompaniment, there are typically three movements.

The first movement is almost always in sonata form.

The second movement is normally the slow movement, although that is not always the case. It is, however, typically in ternary form (e.g. Brahms's Sonata for Clarinet and Piano in Eb) or minuet and trio (e.g. Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata).

The third movement is often a theme and variations. It can also be in ternary or even binary. It's often very fast (e.g. Eccles's Sonata for Viola and Piano).

Usually, the last movement of a piece of music is a finale, and all last movements are technically finales, but they can be called anything.

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.

What is classical and what is romantic in Beethoven's Fifth Symphony?

1. The forms in movements 1, 2, and 4: the first movement is in sonata form, the second is a theme and variations, and the fourth is again in sonata form. The Symphony is clearly Romantic in style and has a Romantic theme. The form in the third movement is scherzo-trio, which is a Romantic innovation derived from the minuet-trio that is commonly associated with the Classical period. Also, there are sudden changes in tempo and mood within each movement. I would not call this a Classical symphony. It sounds too far different than one by Haydn or Mozart.
