Rondo form is French in origin and suggests coming round or an intermitantly recurring theme (rondeau - 13th & 14th centuries). Bach used it quite a lot. The term was Italianised to 'rondo' by Mozarts time and used more widely since 17th century by composers to mean a piece of music with a regularly recurring theme, eg. section A B A C A D A etc. The 'A' being the recurring or 'rondo' theme. Examples include many of Mozart and Beethoven sonatas (sonata-rondo) where the first episode (B) first appears in a key other than the tonic but reappears later in the tonic, just like the second subject in standard sonata form. Also sometimes used in Italian Opera. Often used in the third movement of sonatas and concertos. A clear example is the third movement of Hayden's Trumpet Concerto where the openning 12 bars is revisited regularly in similar or altered forms.
