Théodore Gouvy (3 July 1819 – 21 April 1898) was a French/German composer. He studied music mostly in private courses in Paris and Berlin. Drawn toward instrumental music rather than opera, Gouvy chose to live the last third of his life almost entirely in Germany where he felt more appreciated. He wrote twenty-four compositions for full orchestra, including nine symphonies, as well as overtures and variations. Chamber music also comprises a large portion of Gouvy's work, as well as many melodies, lieder and five dramatic cantatas. During his lifetime, his compositions were held in high regard.

Yaron Windmüller (born 1957) is an Israeli baritone. Gifted with an extraordinary talent for interpretation, the singer has been making a name for himself with Lieder recitals, as well as on the operatic stage and on the concert platform. His versatility can be seen in the wide and varied scope of his repertoire, which in the field of opera encompasses both lyrical and character parts, and in the Lieder and concert fields includes works from pre-classical composers, classical and romantic works as well as twentieth century repertoire. Since 1997, Windmüller has been a professor at the Hochschule des Saarlandes für Musik und Theater.
