list of compositions by ludwig van beethoven

List of compositions by Ludwig van BeethovenFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The musical works of Ludwig van Beethoven (1770–1827) are listed below. Two overlapping lists of

Beethoven's works are presented here. The first is a listing of his best-known works classified by genre. The

second is a larger list of works, classified by various numbering systems. Years in parentheses denote dates of

composition or publication.

The most common methods of numbering Beethoven's works are by opus number, assigned by Beethoven's

publishers during his lifetime, and by number within genre. For example, the 14thstring quartet, published as

Opus 131, may be referenced either as "String Quartet No. 14" or "the Opus 131 String Quartet".

Many works that were unpublished have been assigned either "WoO" (works without opus number) or "Anh"

(appendix) numbers. For example, the short piano piece "Für Elise", is more fully known as the "Bagatelle in A

minor, WoO 59 ('Für Elise')". Some works are also commonly referred to by their nicknames, such as

the 'Kreutzer' Violin Sonata, or the Eroica Symphony.

The listings that follow include all of these relevant identifiers. While other catalogues of Beethoven's

works exist, the numbers here represent the most commonly used and widely known.

Beethoven, caricatured by J. P. Lyser

[edit]Orchestral music

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concertos, and one triple concerto for violin, piano, and cello); the other two are an unpublished early piano

concerto (WoO 4) and an arrangement of the Violin Concerto for piano and orchestra (Opus 61a).

[edit]Symphonies

Opus 21: Symphony No. 1 in C major (composed 1799–1800, premièred 1800)

Opus 36: Symphony No. 2 in D major (composed 1801–02, premièred 1803)

Opus 55: Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major ("Eroica") (composed 1803/04, premièred 1804)

Opus 60: Symphony No. 4 in B-flat major (composed 1806, premièred 1807)

Opus 67: Symphony No. 5 in C minor (composed 1804–08, premièred 1808)

Opus 68: Symphony No. 6 in F major ("Pastoral") (composed 1804–08, premièred 1808)

Opus 92: Symphony No. 7 in A major (composed 1811–12, premièred 1813)

Opus 93: Symphony No. 8 in F major (composed 1812, premièred 1814)

Opus 125: Symphony No. 9 in D minor ("Choral") (composed 1817–24, premièred 1824)

Once believed by some to be an early symphony by Beethoven, the "Jena" Symphony in C major is now

thought to be by Friedrich Witt.[1]

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.[2]

trios, and sonatas for violin and cello with piano, as well as works with wind instruments.

[edit]Trios

[edit]Piano trios

The numbering of Beethoven's twelve piano trios is fairly arbitrary, and other than the three trios in Op. 1 as

being Nos. 1 through 3, sources including both recordings and authoritative publications use other numberings

from those shown here, or more frequently, none at all. It is more usual to identify a piano trio only by its

catalog number and key.

[edit]Works with Anhang (Anh) numbers

These are works from the Appendix (Anhang in German) of Kinsky's catalog that were attributed to Beethoven

at the time the catalog was compiled, but might not have been written by him.

Anh 1: Symphony in C major ("Jena") – now attributed to Friedrich Witt

Anh 2: Six string quartets

Anh 3: Piano Trio in D major

Anh 4: Flute Sonata in B-flat major

Anh 5: Two Piano Sonatinas: Sonatina in G major and Sonatina in F major

Anh 6: Rondo for piano in B-flat major

Anh 7: Piano Concerto (Allegro) in D major (first movement) – at first, many were unconvinced that this

work was by Beethoven; most believed this to be a missing movement from a piano concerto by the

Bohemian composer, Jan Joseph Rosler (1771-1813). Though today, some experts believe this to be a

true work by Beethoven as it musically represents an early 20-year old Beethoven. Regardless, this work

is estimated to have been written between 1788 and 1793.

Anh 8 through 18 are works known by Kinsky to not have been written by Beethoven, but that were previously

falsely attributed to him.[citation needed]

Anh 16, No. 2 Gertrude's Dream Waltz for solo piano
