Very commonly, the first movement of a symphony appears in Sonata form. If it is one of the later symphonies (Mozart, for example), it will likely have 4 movements. The second would be some type of slow movement in a binary form. The 3rd would often be a minuet and trio, followed by a closing movement in Sonata form again.

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.
A concerto generally only has three movements whilst a symphony has four. The movement that has been omitted is the sonata because it has?æone binary form of movement.?æ
More commonly known as Haydn's Symphony # 100,it is the second movement that gives the symphony such appeal.It'sdeceptively calm beginning, although the scoring is darkened by adding a pair of clarinets to the other movements' complement of strings and pairs of flutes, oboes, bassoons, trumpets and horns. Haydn then shatters the texture with a battery of "Turkish" percussion instruments, a novelty of the time already used literally by Mozart. The second movement is an arrangement and elaboration of a concerto for two lira organizata that Haydn had written in 1786 for the King of Naples.
AnswerJosef Haydn is generally considered the Father of the Symphony, so this may help lead you to the answer.- While this is true there is no such thing as 'the' first symphony. The form has evolved almost constantly, and the 4 movements (sonata-allegro, slow, minuet, finale) of Haydn are very different to the one movement or even 15 movements symohonies of modern composers.In the renessaince and Baroque times the word sympony and overture were used interchangeable and the symphony was often the first prelude in an opera. Bachs sons, Carl Phillip and Johann Christian both wrote many symphonies though these were in 3 movement.Joseph Haydn solidified the form and concept of the symphony as a four movement piece described above. Eventually writing 104 symphonies himself.However by the time of Beethovens Late 9th he had revolutionised it again and during the romantic era it was considered the most important form for musical expression. Here the symphony grew in size, emotional depth and often strayed from conventional Structure.
