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.
