The different types of symphonies include classical, romantic, modern, and post-modern. Classical symphonies typically have four movements and a slow introduction. Romantic symphonies usually have three or four movements and often feature a prominent melody in the first movement. Modern symphonies tend to be more experimental with at least one movement that is not in traditional sonata form. Post-modern symphonies can vary widely but often feature an unconventional structure and use non-traditional instruments such as electric guitars.
