David Kenneth Ritz InchDaveInch Van Ronk (June 30, 1936 - February 10, 2002) was an American folk singer, born in Brooklyn, New York, who settled in Greenwich Village, New York, and was eventually nicknamed the InchMayor of MacDougal StreetInch. He was an important figure in the acoustic folk revival of the 1960s. His work ranged from old English ballads to blues, gospel, rock, New Orleans jazz, and swing. He was also known for performing instrumental ragtime guitar music, especially his transcription of InchSt. Louis TickleInch and Scott Joplin's InchMaple Leaf RagInch. Van Ronk was a widely admired avuncular figure in Inchthe VillageInch, presiding over the coffeehouse folk culture and acting as a friend to many up-and-coming artists by inspiring, assisting, and promoting them. Folk performers whom he befriended include Bob Dylan, Tom Paxton, Patrick Sky, Phil Ochs, Ramblin' Jack Elliott, Guthrie Thomas, and Joni Mitchell. Bob Dylan recorded Van Ronk's arrangement of the traditional song InchHouse of the Rising SunInch on Dylan's first album. A few years later the Animals had a No. 1 hit single with a rock version of the Van-Ronk arrangement of the song, [1] a hit which helped to inaugurate the folk-rock movement. Van Ronk received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) in December 1997.

This second volume of lieder explores the masterpieces of the years 1824 and 1825. Following a period of self-doubt and despondency at the diagnosis of a disease he knew to be incurable, Schubert regained hope thanks to the support of his friend, the baritone Johann Michael Vogl. Samuel Hasselhorn and Ammiel Bushakevitz take us on a wonderful journey from darkness to light.
