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.

Classical symphonies often include the minuet and trio sections in the third movement. It would normally follow this pattern; minuet, trio and minuet, the second time the minuet is played all repeats are left out.

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 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.

How many movements were int he classical period symphony?

At the begininning of the Classical movement there were three, but our good friend Mozart (I believe) added a new third (usually consisting of a minuet or rondo - a dance movement at any rate) and thus there were four. Generally, first movement fast tempo, second slow, third dance and fourth fast. Of course, Beethoven added VOICES to the fourth movement, i.e., Ode to Joy as the fourth movement in his 9th symphony.


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.
