Opus (Latin 'work') numbers are assigned to the compositions of many composers as they are published and/or composed. They may provide a fairly reliable indication of when a work was written, but there is a lot of variation in how they have actually been used. Many composers' works have no opus numbers, or randomly-allocated numbers. Often their compositions have been analysed and catalogued by other people in chronological, or some other logical, order, and those catalogues may take the name of the cataloguer. Hence, for example, Mozart's compositions have Köchel numbers, Haydn's have Hoboken (or Hob) numbers, and Schubert's have Deutsch numbers.
Köchel numbers apply only to the music of Mozart, since Mozart was the only composer whose works Köchel catalogued.Some other composers' works have been catalogued by other scholars. For example, Schubert's music is identified by Deutsch numbers and Haydn's by Hoboken numbers.Many composers identify their compositions by opus numbers (the word opus means work). Some use a different method, which may be just a title.
In classical music, pieces are often named by the type of composition ("symphony" "sonata") instead of given a specific name, so when a composer has more than one, they are numbered in the order written (or published) so that people know which is which. Not all composers have numbered their own compositions. Compositions can also be given a catalog number to assign it a chronological place in a composer's list of works.
