A concerto is a work in three movements, rather than the four movements of a symphony, in which a solo instrument or ensemble is accompanied by an orchestra. The concerto developed earlier than the symphony. As in the symphony, the first movement of the classical concerto is generally in sonata-allegro form, followed by a slow movement and a finale usually in rondo form. The concerto had arisen in the Baroque period, in two types. One was the concerto grosso, in which a small ensemble within the orchestra is contrasted to and accompanied by the full complement. The other was the solo concerto as described.

A piano or violin accompanied by an orchestra typically refers to a concerto, where the solo instrument performs alongside a full orchestral ensemble. For example, a piano concerto features a piano soloist with orchestral support, while a violin concerto features a violin as the solo instrument. These compositions highlight the interplay between the soloist and the orchestra, showcasing both the technical prowess of the soloist and the richness of the orchestral sound.
The first violinist is called the Concertmaster or leader.
