音樂創作人林已翔在讀了《在極美的五月裡──海涅詩集》後深受感動， 邊讀著詩集，拿起吉他就很自然的唱出了這些詩歌， 也就這樣譜出了許多動人的歌曲， 在他的演繹中， 讓更多不曾聽過海涅的人認識這位兩百多年前的抒情詩人。 海涅的詩歌，極富音樂性， 根據他的詩所譜出的歌曲數以千計， 讀海涅的詩，彷彿享受一曲清音在心裡流過， 平易近人，自然流暢，充滿溫柔的情感。 美，可以不同形式撫慰你我的心， 或許是文字，或許是音符， 或許是空中的星星，或許是戀人的面龐。 The Taiwanese songwriter I-Siang Lin, inspired by the selected poems from “Extreme Beauty in May” written by the 19th Century German poet Christian Johann Heinrich Heine, picked up his guitar and started to sing. Thus many lovely songs were produced. The following songs were created in this fashion and will hopefully introduce more people to learn of the timelessness and relevance of the words of this romantic poet who lived 200 years ago. Heine’s expressions are extremely musical. Thousands of songs were written according to his poems. Reading Heine's poetry seems to enjoy a clean sound flowing through the heart, which is approachable, natural and smooth, full of tender emotions. Beauty comforts our souls in many different forms. Maybe by words or musical notes; maybe by the stars in the sky or maybe by the face of a lover.
