Using different Musical forms. But of course the "Sonata" (Allegro) Form was introduced in the Classical era so that became quickly popular so lets use this as an example. A Sonata has 3 (sometimes 4) movements, the first of which is Allegro (Thus why it's also known as the Allegro form). The first movement will follow a strict structure which consisted of:
The Exposition:
Starting in the tonic of the key. Main theme/tune with two subjects (tunes), a 1st and 2nd.
The Development:
New musical ideas differing from the Exposition, making use of a different key (commonly the dominant). This is known as a "transition".
The Recapitulation:
Echoing themes and tunes used at the beginning in the Exposition though perhaps in a different key. The Recapitulation may feature a "Coda" where the key will revert back to that of the tonic - starting key.
An "Introduction" may be used right at the beginning which will be slower than the rest of the movement and in the tonic key. An example of this would be the first 12 bars of Beethoven's 1st Symphony in C Major (Movement 1).
Hope this has been of some help
