Abstract

　　This paper reviews Schubert’s song cycle Die Schöne Müllerin and

discusses ten songs that symbolize the stream figure. By analysing the

song figures and harmonies, we get to see how Schubert used music to

describe the character of the stream.

　　By observing the formal construction of Die Schöne Müllerin, my

research also examined the dialogues between the river and the

protagonist, the teenage Miller. As the storyline develops, we will further

analyze the mental state of the Miller. With deep research and

understanding, this can assist the performer to better understand and

inhibit the character in future.

　　Finally, through a combination of music analysis, dramatic narration

and song interpretation, we discuss the song cycle's description of the

relationship between the stream and the Miller.
