For example, the 14th string quartet , published as Opus , may be referenced either as " String Quartet No. Many works that were unpublished or else published without opus numbers have been assigned either " WoO " works without opus number or "Anh" appendix numbers. Some works are also commonly referred to by their nicknames, such as the 'Kreutzer' Violin Sonata , or the Eroica Symphony. The listings include all of these relevant identifiers. While other catalogues of Beethoven's works exist, the numbers here represent the most commonly used. Years in parentheses denote dates of composition or publication.
Beethoven wrote nine symphonies , nine concertos , and a variety of other orchestral music, ranging from overtures and incidental music for theatrical productions to other miscellaneous "occasional" works, written for a particular occasion. Of the concertos, seven are widely known one violin concerto, five piano concertos, and one triple concerto for violin, piano, and cello ; the other two are an early piano concerto WoO 4 and an arrangement of the Violin Concerto for piano and orchestra Opus 61a.
Beethoven is believed to have intended to write a Tenth Symphony in the last year of his life; a performing version of possible sketches was assembled by Barry Cooper. Beethoven wrote 16 string quartets and numerous other forms of chamber music , including piano trios , string trios , and sonatas for violin and cello with piano, as well as works with wind instruments.
The numbering of Beethoven's twelve piano trios is fairly arbitrary, and other than the three trios in Op. It is more usual to identify a piano trio only by its catalog number and key. While he completed only one opera , Beethoven wrote vocal music throughout his life, including two Mass settings, other works for chorus and orchestra in addition to the Ninth Symphony , arias , duets , art songs lieder , and true song cycles. The following is a list of Beethoven's works, sorted by Opus number , followed by works listed as WoO in the Kinsky—Halm Catalogue, and then works listed in the appendix of that catalog, which are given "Anh" numbers, whose composition by Beethoven has since been verified.
