String Quartet No. 12 (Beethoven)
The third variation shifts to E major, enharmonically the flat submediant, and the tempo shifts to a hymnlike adagio molto espressivo. Op. 127: A → E (lowered submediant) – penultimate variation → D (subdominant) → final variation
Op. 125: D → B (lowered submediant) – penultimate variation

Mazurkas, Op. 17 (Chopin)
There are no subdominant (IV) or submediant (VI) chords in the entire movement. As many composers did in the romantic period, Chopin contrasts tonic by moving to the flat submediant (bVI).

Piano Sonata in A minor, D 845 (Schubert)
The relative major C, as well as the submediant F major, play major structural and dramatic roles in this and later movements. This note prepares the key change to the submediant, A♭ major, in variation four, a virtuosic run of fast 32nd notes that makes heavy use of chromaticism
