Explanation: The Exposition in sonata-allegro form introduces the main thematic contrast (First Subject in tonic, Second Subject in a related key such as the dominant or relative major) connected by a transition.
2Which structural section of a sonata-allegro movement brings back both primary and secondary themes in the tonic key?
