This table of works by the Danish composer Carl Nielsen initially lists them by genre and composition date within a genre.
Nielsen wrote music in many genres, notably symphonies, concertos and choral music, but also operas and incidental music, chamber music, solo works for violin, piano and organ as well as a considerable number of songs. [1]
Nielsen assigned an opus number only to selected compositions, from Op 1 for the Suite for String Orchestra in 1888 to Op 58 for the organ work Commotio (1930–1931). The opus number 59 was assigned posthumously to three piano pieces Tre Klaverstykker (1928). [1]
The FS catalogue was first compiled in 1965 by Dan Fog and Torben Schousboe. [2] It is arranged roughly in chronological order in accordance with the publication date of the works, initially up to FS 161. Compositions discovered after 1965 were assigned higher numbers, in connection with the publication of a Nielsen CD in 1998. [3]
The CNW (Catalogue of Carl Nielsen's Works), compiled by the Royal Danish Library, covers all of Nielsen's known works (419 in all). The CNW catalogue numbers link to the individual catalogue entries. Each entry gives a brief description of the work in English together with links to background information and scores from the Carl Nielsen Edition. In contrast to FS, CNW numbers each of Nielsen's songs individually instead of numbering the publications in which they appeared. [1]

Antonín Leopold Dvořák was a Czech composer. Dvořák frequently employed rhythms and other aspects of the folk music of Bohemia and his native Moravia, following the Romantic-era nationalist example of his predecessor Bedřich Smetana. Dvořák's style has been described as "the fullest recreation of a national idiom with that of the symphonic tradition, absorbing folk influences and finding effective ways of using them."
Carl August Nielsen was a Danish composer, conductor and violinist, widely recognized as his country's most prominent composer.
In musicology, the opus number is the "work number" that is assigned to a musical composition, or to a set of compositions, to indicate the chronological order of the composer's production. Opus numbers are used to distinguish among compositions with similar titles; the word is abbreviated as "Op." for a single work, or "Opp." when referring to more than one work.
Anton Stepanovich Arensky was a Russian composer of Romantic classical music, a pianist and a professor of music.
Laura Valborg Aulin was a Swedish pianist and composer. Aulin's String Quartet in E minor, Op. 17 and String Quartet in F minor are the most important Swedish music compositions in that genre from the 1880s.
Antonín Dvořák's Stabat Mater, Op. 58 (B. 71), is an extended setting for vocal soloists, choir and orchestra of the 20 stanzas of the Stabat Mater sequence. Dvořák sketched the composition in 1876 and completed it in 1877. It has been characterized as a sacred cantata and as an oratorio, and consists of ten movements of which only the first and the last are thematically connected. Its total performance time is around 85 minutes.
Peter Erasmus Lange-Müller was a Danish composer and pianist. His compositional style was influenced by Danish folk music and by the work of Robert Schumann; Johannes Brahms; and his Danish countrymen, including J.P.E. Hartmann.
