In what sequence would, say, a symphony, be recorded on 16" lacquers?

Would it be:
1. 1st Movement - Part 1.
2 1st Movement - Part 2.
3. 2nd Movement - Part 1.
4 2nd Movement - Part 2. etc
then any re-takes at the end.
or
1. 1st Movement - Part 1 - take 1.
2. 1st Movement - Part 1 - take 2.
3. 2nd Movement - Part 2 - take 1.
4. 2nd Movement - Part 2 - take 2. etc?
