Abstract


Floods of Spring is an exquisite Vocal Romance, composed by Sergei·Vassilievitch·Rachmaninoff (1873-1943). It is a representative of Russian Romance during Romanticism, which nowadays is still very popular after it has gone through a long time. This paper intends to investigate a better way to perform Floods of Spring through the overall-grasp of its style, breath, articulation, and some tips for important phrases, the cooperation of the singer and the piano accompaniment player.
