    Default Do These [Classical] Song Titles Mean Anything To You?

    1) The Unaccompanied Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major, BWV 1007
    2) Violin Concerto, No. 3: "Strassburg" K. 216, 3rd Movement
    3) Adagio from Concerto Grosso Op. 6, No. 8 in G Minor: Christmas Concerto
    4) La Boccherini la Musica Notturna Delle Strade Di Madrid No. 6, Op. 30

    They are 4 tracks from my brothers 'Master and Commander' soundtrack. I was wondering what they meant.

    BWV = "bach werke verzeichnis " catalog of Bach's works.
    K = "Kerschel", catalog of Mozart's works.
    The concertao Grosso is by Corelli.
    Boccherini (here shouldn't be a la) is a composer.
    Op. = "Opus" , work. It designates a book published by the composer.
