Abstract

The article is dedicated to the vocal creation of Alexei Stârcea (1919-1974), a famous composer, singer and pedagogue. His early romances dating back to the years 1946-1955 are examples of love lyrics. Some of the vocal pieces signed during the reference period, such as „The Day Is Nearing Evening” („День вечереет”) on lyrics by F. Tiutchev, or „The Soul Bursts Out of the Chest” („Так и рвется душа”) on verses by A. Koltsov, entered the contemporary concert and pedagogical repertoire. The article studies two romances by A. Stârcea on poems by F. Tyutchev, which are analyzed from the point of view of form, poetic content, the interaction of music with the literary text, musical language, vocal interpretation.
