Best Answer

You may be referring to a catalog scheme.

For example: The Köchel-Verzeichnis is a complete, chronological catalogue of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (born 1756) which was originally created by Ludwig von Köchel. Mozart's Opera Don Giovani is noted as K 527. These catalog notations are usually noted as K or KV.

For the music of Mozart, the "k" stands for Koechel ... the man who painstakingly cataloged all of Mozart's works.
