Title page of Beethoven's symphonies from the Gesamtausgabe. The list of compositions of Ludwig van Beethoven consists of 722 works [1] written over forty-five years, from his earliest work in 1782 (variations for piano on a march by Ernst Christoph Dressler) when he was only eleven years old and still in Bonn, until his last work just before his death in Vienna in 1827.

The last period covers Beethoven's works after Op. 90 to his death in 1827. Although later scholars have called into question such a simplistic categorisation, it is still widely used. [5]
