Ternary form

History and usage

Ternary form may be found in some Gregorian chants, in settings of the Kyrie and Agnus Dei of the Mass, for instance.^[1] Later, it is the prefered form for baroque opera arias, the da capo aria being the primary form.

As well as in marches, and in many dance forms, such as polkas. It is also the form used in the minuet (or scherzo) and trio, which, in the Classical era, was usually the third movement of symphonies, string quartets, sonatas and similar works.^{[citation needed]}
