Classical music has a lighter, clearer texture than Baroque music and is less
complex. It is mainly homophonic, using a clear melody line over a subordinate chordal
accompaniment, but counterpoint was by no means forgotten, especially later in period.
Sonata, concerto and symphony are the instrumental forms developed during this era
while the Opera Seria and Opera Buffa are the two vocal forms.
INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC
Sonata – a multi-movement work for solo instrument. Sonata came from the word Sonare
which means “to make sound”. The term is applied to a variety of works for a solo
instrument such as keyboard or violin.
1st movement: Allegro –fast movement
2nd movement: Andante – slow movement
3rd movement: Minuet – moderate or fast tempo in three-four time
Sonata Allegro Form
The most important form that developed during the classical era consists of 3 distinct
sections: Exposition, Development and Recapitulation
1. Exposition – the first part of a composition in Sonata form that introduces the
theme.
2. Development - is the middle part of the sonata-allegro from wherein themes are
being developed.
3. Recapitulation – repeats the theme as they emerged in the opening exposition.
Concerto – is a multi-movement work designed for an instrumental soloist and orchestra. It

is a classical form of music intended primarily to emphasize the individuality of the solo
instrument and to exhibit the virtuosity and interpretative abilities of the performer.
