The opening movement, colossal in its conception ( much like the symphony itself ), roughly takes the shape of sonata form, insofar as there is an alternating presentation of two theme groups ; however, the themes are varied and developed with each presentation, and the typical harmonic logic of the sonata form movement — particularly the tonic statement of second theme group material in the recapitulation — is changed.
