Catalogue, and then works listed in the appendix of that catalog, which are given "Anhang" numbers. These are followed by
additional works with Hess numbers listed in the catalog of Willy Hess that are not otherwise listed in the Kinsky–Halm
Catalogue. Lastly there is works with Biamonti numbers (Bia.), from the Biamonti Catalogue, an attempt to catalogue everything
that Beethoven wrote in chronological order, though there are works that were not known at the time it was compiled. Thus there
is no definitive catologue of Beethoven's works to match the Deutsch catalogue for Schubert or the Köchel catalogue for Mozart.
