Is sheet music ordered in sections?

Yes, sheet music is typically organized into sections, or movements. Each movement is a self-contained piece of music that contributes to the overall work. The movements of a sheet music piece are usually numbered, and they may have different tempos, keys, and moods. For example, a sonata might have three movements: an allegro (fast), an adagio (slow), and a rondo (fast and lively).
