See you at the Symphony! A: No! Please never hesitate to ask us about anything you need to know or that you are wondering about. Back in the day, composers loved audiences clapping whenever the spirit of the music moved them, including right in the middle of an opera or right after a movement in a symphony or concerto. But then at some point some people decided that when it comes to symphonies and concertos, silence is golden between the movements.
So this expectation and practice developed in classical music where the audience sat on its hands metaphorically speaking β you can sit anyway you want during a concert in between the movements of symphonies and concertos and they held their applause to the very end of the whole symphony or concerto. Actually, you can pick from a number of rationales, some of which might be pretty good and some of which are definitely a bit pompous: the silence increases the intensity and pleasure of the moment, it helps the conductor and musicians concentrate on the next movement, or this is the pompous one the audience should be in such reverence of what they just heard that silent awe is the only appropriate reaction to it.
There are times when the emotion that music stirs in us makes us want to jump up and clap our hands, almost as if we want a piece of the action and join in on the joyous sound we just heard. Sometimes we are so blown away by and appreciative of what we have experienced that we need to express that emotion.
And sometimes the emotion we feel is one of peace, calm, relaxation, or even a somber and consoling feeling, and we want to quietly let that soak in. So our two cents on the strange but true story of applause in classical music is that you should do what your emotions tell you to do, including not clapping at the end of a slow movement if you want to sustain a peaceful, calm, or somber feeling, or if in doubt you can just wait to see what other people are doing.
