アントン・シンドラー
Jeitteles's poetic sequence "An die ferne Geliebte (To the Distant Beloved)", written in 1815 when he was 21, was set in 1816 as a song cycle by Ludwig van Beethoven, who was acquainted with both Alois and his cousin Ignaz. Beethoven's early biographer Anton Schindler recorded that Beethoven thanked Jeitteles for the inspiration he provided, but it is not clear whether Jeitteles wrote the poems specifically for Beethoven or whether Beethoven first saw them on publication.
