INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC
SONATA
A multi-movement work for solo instrument, Sonata came from the word “Sonare” which means to
make a sound. This term is applied to a variety of works for solo instruments such as a keyboard or
violin.
In the Classical period (roughly 1750-1810) 'sonata' came to mean work in several movements. It
was usually three, with the first movement in a special sonata form. Sonatas were a popular and
important form, and many were composed for amateur performers to play at home. The basic
elements of sonata form are exposition, development, and recapitulation, in which the musical
subject matter is stated, explored or expanded, and restarted. There may also be an introduction,
usually in slow tempo, and a coda, or tailpiece.
Three movements of Sonata. 1. Allegro (fast movement) 2. Andante (slow movement) 3. Minuet (it is
in a three-four-time signature and a moderate or fast tempo).
1. Exposition- the first part of a composition in sonata from that introduces the theme

Development is the middle part of the sonata-allegro form wherein themes are being developed.
3. Recapitulation- repeats the themes as they first emerge in the opening exposition
