What is the form for the second movement of a piano sonata?
Second Movement- In most symphonies, the second movement will be slow and solemn in character. Composers have used many different forms for slow movements – Sonata Form; Ternary form; Variations form; Rondo form; and combinations and modifications of these forms. In many cases, the order of the second and third movements will be interchanged, and the second movement will be a scherzo, and the third movement will be a slow movement (ie Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony).
