"Gute Nacht" (D. 911 Op. 89 No. 1) for Viola & Piano. (Mike Magatagan)

I listened to this strictly out of curiosity... sharing this play-along video sheet music because I was really taken by it's beauty!

"Gute Nacht" (Good Night) recants that by moonlight, in winter, the poet leaves the house as he came to it, a stranger. The daughter has allowed their love to grow, and the mother has encouraged the pair to think of marriage: but the daughter's love has wandered to some new sweetheart. So he quietly and secretly steals away while they are sleeping, writing 'Good night' on her door, and leaving the path of his footsteps in the snow.

Am I the only one who hasn't heard this piece by the Romantic, Franz Peter Schubert?

I've heard it, but not played on a string instrument. It's originally for tenor voice.
