I recently listened to a song recital by Felicity Lott and Graeme Johnson,
in which they concluded with Cole Porter's "Night and Day" as an encore,
and the accompaniment incorporated, amazingly, almost all of the
accompaniment to the Schubert song "Nacht und Traüme". (Doubling the
surprise is the simple matter of the juxtaposition of the two song
titles!)
