I can't think of an example for classical specifically, but I have noticied that whenver I see a group of numbers, I often think of them as numbers for frets, as if I'm reading guitar tab. This used to be a HUGE thing in the past- whenever I read through a math book, all the numbers to me stood for frets, and I had to figure out what strings they were on. Nowadays, it's not common, although yesterday I was reminded of some song after seeing $11.14 on my register- it looked so similar to the tab...

You unthinkingly use the term"piece" generically (e.g., "What's the name of that piece by the Ramones?").'

Classic!  LOL!
