My teacher asked this exact same question this afternoon! (same wording)

If you look in the textbook, "Music An Appreciation" Ninth Edition by Roger Kamien, Pages 135 - 139, the first and last movements of the Concerto Grosso are fast, whereas the second, or middle movement, is slow. Hope this helps!

How many movements are in a Classical concerto?

There are usually three movements in a concerto, the first and last being in most cases faster than the middle movement. Needless to say, some composers have deviated from this pattern. [The following information, posted by a previous editor, seems to be the answer to a different question, concerning sonata form: : 1) Exposition (the theme is introduced, but in 2 different keys) 2) Development (the themes are developed/varied) 3) Recapitulation (the themes are reintroduced, but this time in the same key)]


Why did Bartok name his last work Concerto for Orchestra?

Bela Bartok was commissioned by two friends whom he had mentored, Fritz Reiner and Josef Szigeti, to create a work for The Boston Symphony while he was dying of Leukemia. In December 1944, nine months before his death, Bartok's largest work 'The Concerto for Orchestra' premiered. The piece featured different groups of instruments showcased as solo elements while the whole work was a symphony. This was similar to the Baroque concept of "concerto Grosso" and was how the piece received its name.


What is the tempo in Piano Concerto No 3 in C minor?

I'm assuming your talking about Beethoven's Third Piano Concerto in C Minor. It is an allegro con brio (lively with energy). A good mm for this concerto would be about 120. Of course, experiment with it. Your artisitc interpretation is what makes me movie. Faster, slower, go crazy. Just have fun with what your doing.


How many symphonies did Sergei Rachmaninoff compose?

Three. The most famous concert is the first one, in Bb minor, op. 23; the second is in G major, op. 44; the last one, op. 75, consists only in one movement, so it's thought that it's incomplete. It was based on sketches for a symphony in Eb Major which would have been his sixth, but which Tchaikovsky abandoned.
