How Fair This Spot,  Sergei Rachmaninoff, transcription of Jeremy Jordan

How Fair This Spotis one of 12 songs from Rachmaninoff’s Opus 21 song cycle of Romances. The libretto is a compilation of the work of various Russian poets. The original poem by Glafira Galina describes a beautiful and serene view of rivers, meadows, and clouds. As the narrator gazes upon this scene he/she is transported to sublime ecstasy.      Jeremy Jordan
