In 1815 Franz Schubert set "Der Mondabend" for voice and piano. It was first published in 1830 in Vienna, as No. 1 of Op. posth. 131. Later the song was known as 141. The other two songs of Op. 131 were (for tenor, men's choir and piano), and 23 (for voice and piano).[1] [2] The only other poem by Kumpf that was set by Schubert was "German: Mein Gruß an den Mai|italic=no", D 305.[3]
"Der Mondabend", WAB 200, is a reminiscence – in the same key (A major), meter and first four notes – of Schubert's "Der Mondabend", that Anton Bruckner composed for Aloisia Bogner .[4]
