What is an opus number?
In the world of classical music, a composer would generally not go to a publisher with a single piece of music, unless it was a major composition like a symphony. Composers would write a suite of pieces like Tombeau de Couperin (Ravel) or a series of sonatas. The publisher would assign an opus number to that work or collection of works, usually in order for that particular composer. So a composer's "Opus 1" would mean that is the composer's first published work. This is why some pieces are called, for example, Opus 12 #4. This piece is part of the published opus 12, and it is the fourth piece in the collection.

What is the difference between Hob and Opus?
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.
