Alois Bröder's composition Nachträume from 2015 circles the Schubert Lied from a side that deliberately hides the quasi-guitaristic aspect of the original, the uniform layer of accompanying figures. In Bröder's work, a rhythmic motif from the prelude to Schubert's Lied appears in dreamlike enlargement, four note values of equal length, which is picked out and becomes the dominant figure of his piece. At the same time, it reproduces the metrical pattern of the poem's verses: four-legged trochees. The four-tone phrases in slow tempo are juxtaposed and minimally varied, in one voice, in octaves or harmonized. Motivic and harmonic echoes of Schubert appear rather vaguely before the 30-bar piece finally leads into the song's prelude as a quote in the last five bars and fades away with it - a composed invitation to the "return" of dreams desired in Collin's text, which would then appear in Schubert's song itself... Bröder has also incorporated the lyrics of the song directly into his composition, because the guitarist not only has to play his instrument, but he also uses his voice to whisper the verses simultaneously in a free rhythm.
