In the late 18 th and early 19 th centuries,a particular genre collectively known as artistic songs prevailed in Europe.Its characteristic is that the lyrics are mostly poetry created by famous poets,which has a high literary character,focusing on human personality and emotional color,lyrical,beautiful and expressive tunes,focusing on the perfect combination of poetry and music.Status has a strong artistic appeal.During the Romantic period of the 19 th century,artistic songs were favored by well-known musicians around the world.This genre of songs was called "Lied" in Germany,"Romance" in Russia,and "Chanson" in France.Chinese translation is "art song" and so on.The art song repertoire is an artistic manifestation of another form.The original meaning of the vocal suite is "ring dance",that is,Song-cycle.The vocal repertoire is a fixed form of song repertoire determined during the peak period of artistic songs.The songs in a vocal suite are related to each other through their content and musical style.It is characterized by a common theme,composed of several works running through a line.The article focuses on "tragedy" as the center of the analysis of artistic song sets,and analyzes and judges the artistic expression in "tragic" works based on the connection between word-to-word translation of poetry and music in its set.Tragic art has a very long cultural history around the world.In the West,Aristotle of ancient Greece laid the foundation for tragedy theory;Aristotle believed that tragedy can purify and mold people's souls by arousing people's compassion and fear;The tragic significance of one of the four famous books,Dream of the Red Chamber,lies in the fact that the plot makes people feel compassion and loss.At the same time,it can also motivate people to think about the reasons behind the tragedy and can resonate with everyone.From this point of view,"tragic" works have positive social and practical significance.The article selects Beethoven's vocal "Lover to the Distant" in the classical period,Schubert's vocal "Winter Journey" in the middle period of romanticism,and later Mahler's vocal "The Song of the Dead" to analyze poetry and music.It then summarizes the layout of the "sadness" works in the suite of different artistic characteristics and its creative approach to the "sadness" color.
