Which statement is true with regard to a classical symphony?

the third movement is a dancelike movement, like that of minuet or scherzo

the first movement is a lyrical, slow movement

the fourth movement is a dancelike movement

the second movement is a vigorous movement

Answer 1

I believe it is the first option: the third movement is a dancelike movement

Answer 2

the third movement is a dancelike movement, like that of minuet or scherzo

Step-by-step explanation:

The third movement of a symphony (between 11:04 to 15:49) is usually a dance, a busier type of music. It is the simplest musical part of the symphony. For some scholars, in Symphony No. 5 of Beethoven, the third movement comes as hope in the face of the sadness represented in the previous movement.
