Köchel catalogue
This is a complete list of the works of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, according to the sixth edition of the Köchel catalogue. For a selective list of his works, grouped by genre, see List of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The Köchel-Verzeichnis or Köchelverzeichnis is an inclusive, chronological catalogue of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, which was originally created by Ludwig von Köchel. It is abbreviated K. or KV. Köchel catalogue numbers not only reflect an ongoing attempt to establish a chronology of Mozart's works, but also provide a shorthand to refer to them. For example, Mozart's Requiem in D minor was, according to Köchel's counting, the 626th piece Mozart composed. Thus, the piece is designated K. 626 or KV 626. However, Köchel's original 1862 catalogue has been twice substantially revised, and some works have had three K. numbers assigned to them; e.g. Mozart's Horn Concerto No. 1, K. (412+514)/386b.
