I'm not sure what you mean... The form of the sonata is sonata form. Or if you want to get fancy, it's First Movement Sonata-Allegro Form.

Sonata-allegro form is a form with three main divisions: exposition, development and recapitulation (a coda is frequently added). It is not same as binary or ternary forms. The sonata form is a form itself.

1 answer


Yes it can. Many quartets of the Classical period followed a sonata-form structure.

1 answer


Frequently. The sonata form was developed through the music of Beethoven and several of his contemporaries, including Schubert, Mozart and Haydn. Theses composers all took aspects of the sonata form that were gradually evolving through the late Baroque and early Classical periods, and developed sonata form into a model and structure that it became.

A Sonata piece is four movements (fast, slow, dance, fast), but sonata form is three sections within one of those movements (A B A)

It is typically four movements.

The first is fast and in sonata form

The second is slow

The third is a scherzo or minuet in trio form

The fourth is fast and in sonata or rondo form

A sonata is a three-movement piece for solo piano or any solo instrument with or without piano accompaniment. Sonata-allegro refers to a particular form originally used in one-movement pieces, later incorporated in the three-movement sonata which was named for the form. A typical sonata-allegro form is

I first theme, expansion

II second theme, expansion

III development of the opening theme or themes

IV recapitulation of the themes

V coda

Sonata-allegro originally included tonal relationships between the first and second themes, tonal freedom during the development, and tonal unity of the recapitulation and coda.

It joins two subjects together.

It is not certain that any one man "established" sonata-allegro form. It developed organically, over time, from the simpler a-b-a tertiary form. Embellishments on the main theme in the "b" section gradually became the more adventurous development section of the true sonata-allegro. Most of Scarlatti's keyboard sonatas did not adhere to what Haydn and Mozart would have recognized as a sonata-allegro form.

1 answer


Sonata form (also sonata-allegro form or first movement form) is a large-scale musical structureused widely since the middle of the 18th century (the early Classical period).

While it is typically used in the first movement of multi-movement pieces, it is sometimes used in subsequent movements as well-particularly the final movement. The teaching of sonata form in music theory rests on a standard definition and a series of hypotheses about the underlying reasons for the durability and variety of the form-a definition that arose in the second quarter of the 19th century.[4]There is little disagreement that on the largest level, the form consists of three main sections: an exposition, a development, and a recapitulation;[5]however, beneath this, sonata form is difficult to pin down in a single model.

Many do, but not all. Some symphonies go through an almost continual organic development, either touching on sonata formulae or eschewing sonata altogether.

1 answer


It's almost the same except that in a sonata rondo form the main theme is stated between each section (like between the exposition and development sections)

1 answer


Sonata form is different to other musical forms such as binary and ternary form, in that it comprises aspects of both. For example, its use of key relationships (e.g. tonic to dominant and back to tonic) is similar to that of binary form, whereas the fact that it is divided into three parts makes it similar to ternary form.

Later, the sonata form also developed a coda, which was not present in binary or ternary form.

A Sonata means a piece played as opposed to a cantata which is a piece or song being sung. The definition of a Sonata world wide used is:

Music of a particular form consisting of four movements. Each of the movements differ in tempo, rhythm, and melody; but are held together by subject and style.

The direction on Beethoven's "Moonlight" Sonata is "quasi una fantasia," which means like a fantasy. The first movement is in a free form in which the melody returns after slight developments, somewhat akin to a slow rondo. The whole sonata is perhaps the most unstructured of all Beethoven's works in that form.

1 answer


The title "Sonata quasi una fantasia" in Beethoven's piano composition signifies that the piece is a sonata that resembles a fantasy. This suggests that the work breaks traditional sonata form and allows for more freedom and expression in its structure and style.

- The sonata-allegro form is made of three sections: an exposition, a development and a recapitulation. The exposition has two themes. The development is often an improvisation over the exposition with modulations, and it is the composer's place to be creative and "show off" his abilities. The recapitulation is a repeat of the two themes from the exposition, and it ends with a coda.

- A rondo is a form where the piece moves from one theme to the next. For example, it could be ABCDE... It could also repeat the A theme throughout, thus ABACADA...

- A concerto is a sonata written for an instrument accompanied by an orchestra.

Note that sonata-allegro form is not the same as a sonata! Most first movements of sonatas are in sonata-allegro form.

They are all different things, but interlinked. Sonata form can be thought of as more like a building block in the sense that it would generally be used as the structure for one single movement within a larger work - for example, a movement from a concerto or a symphony (this is something concertos and symphonies have in common). Every standard symphony from the classical era onwards will have a first movement written in sonata form, and often the finale (final movement) will also be in sonata form. Concertos from the classical era onwards will also generally have a first movement based on sonata form, although the structure is somewhat different due to the movement obviously being scored for a soloist as well as an orchestra (that is basically the definition of concerto - a work featuring a soloist and orchestra of some description), which means a there will be a double exposition, usually with first the orchestra (tutti) playing at the beginning of the exposition, then the solo instrument.

Of course, I have assumed you mean 'sonata form', rather than the 'sonata' as in a work for one or two instrumentalists, generally with several movements, out of which at least one (but not all) is a sonata form movement, usually the first movement. If you are talking about this meaning of sonata, then it has something in common with the concerto, as both feature a soloist, but a concerto will also feature an orchestra, whereas in a sonata the soloist would perhaps be accompanied by a piano, harpsichord, etc., but certainly not by an orchestra. It also has something in common with the symphony, since they both use sonata form for at least one movement; however, the sonata is quite a different thing to the symphony.

To sum up, it depends which way you look at it. Concertos and symphonies are both multi-movement works which use sonata form for at least one movement, so they have that in common. However, the orchestra in a symphony would generally be quite a bit larger than a concerto, particularly a classical era concerto, as otherwise the soloist would be overpowered. Sonata form ties everything together, but it is different to concertos and symphonies as it is the structure of a single movement, not a multi-movement work, and a sonata has some similarities to the concerto, as outlined above, but few to the symphony.
