此研究分為三大部分，其一為探討中國文學對於音樂的重要性，以及文學與音樂之間的交互關係；其二闡述筆者對於中國美學中，意境是如何產生、意象和意境如何分類等想法；其三分析兩首筆者不同風格的音樂創作，並說明如何將文學意境運用於這兩首音樂創作中。中國文學藉由形容詞、動詞、名詞等文字，結合作者的情緒，勾勒出文學的意境；中國音樂藉由音高、節奏、和聲變化等聽覺的聲響，以時間的推移，在聽覺上留下音樂的意境。筆者探討文學與音樂的關係，試圖將音樂作品做一剖析與統整，並探究內心的感受與外在音響之關係。透過此研究提供演奏者在演奏與文學相關的音樂時，能更進一步地了解音樂聲響背後的意義，也藉此讓讀者了解文學與音樂的二元關係，激發更多的想法於音樂的創作、詮釋及聆賞。
This research is divided into three separate parts. One of them focuses on discussing the importance of Chinese literature to music and the relationships between them. Another one states out the reflections of the author upon the creation of artistic conception, and the categorization of imagery and artistic conception in Chinese aesthetics. The last one focuses on analyzing two musical compositions with different forms which are composed by the author and elaborating the applications of literary artistic conception in the two very musical compositions. Chinese literature is framed with adjectives, verbs, nouns, and other visualized characters, and merged with the emotion of the narrator to create the literary artistic conception. While Chinese music is outlined with pitch, tempo, harmonic progression and other auditory features, therefore created the musical artistic conception with the moving of the time. The author discusses the relationships between literature and music, and is trying to analyze and integrate musical compositions and explore the relationships between the inner feeling and the sound on the outside. Performers can realize more information under the notes when performing literature related musical compositions, and the readers can grasp the relationships between music and literature and stimulate more thoughts upon music composing, interpretation and appreciation with the help of this research.
