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.
