Concerto-Sonata Form

Sonata form for a Concerto movement contains many of the characteristics of a normal sonata form movement.
All the normal key and thematic relationships are present.
Rather than a repeated Expo., the movement will contain an Orchestral Exposition and a Solo Exposition.
The Orchestral Exposition will not modulate, the Solo Expostion will.
The Development section may include anything, but frequently serves as a showcase for the soloist.
The Recapitulation will frequently combine elements from both expositions.
The Recapitulation will remain in tonic.
A cadenza is often added somewhere after the conclusion of the S theme.
