筆者選擇兩首皆用中國古典文學為素材創作之揚琴曲，以高龍作曲、劉寒力定譜《木蘭辭》和楊青《聲聲慢》作為本次探討之曲目。藉由分析兩首文學作品中之表達意涵以及兩首揚琴曲的創作手法，對應相互之關係，體現出音樂的風格、演奏技巧、感情表達並與文學作品中所傳達意象之呼應。經由分析文學作品中的潛文本包括寫作背景、歷史淵源，以及揚琴曲之樂曲架構和作曲家創作手法，並以演奏作為實踐，進而探究出文學與音樂間之關聯。
The author chose two dulcimer pieces composed with Chinese classical literature as the material, "Mulan Ci" composed by Gao Long and composed by Liu Hanli, and "Sheng Sheng Man" by Yang Qing as the tracks for this discussion. By analyzing the expressive meanings in the two literary works and the creative techniques of the two dulcimer pieces, and corresponding to each other, it reflects the style, performance skills, emotional expression of the music and the echoes with the images conveyed in the literary works. By analyzing the subtext in literary works, including the writing background, historical origins, as well as the musical structure of dulcimer music and the composer's creative techniques, and using performance as a practice, the connection between literature and music is explored.
