Sonata-Allegro Form

Sonata-Allegro form is a musical structure commonly used in classical compositions, particularly in the first movement of sonatas, symphonies, and chamber works. It consists of three main sections: the **Exposition**, where main themes are introduced; the **Development**, where those themes are explored and altered, often creating tension; and the **Recapitulation**, which revisits the main themes, usually in the original key, bringing resolution. This form helps composers create dynamic and emotionally engaging music, allowing for contrast and balance within a single movement.
