Li Bai's Listening to the Guqin of a Shu Monk and Bai Juyi's Song of the Pipa are both classics in the history of Chinese literature. They have dabbled in literature and music, so they are also reflected in the description of music. In Li Bai's Listening to a Shu Monk Playing Qin, Li Bai vividly expressed the emotions of music by describing the relationship between the zither sound, the player and the audience. He compared the piano to "high mountains and flowing water", the player to "immortal", and the audience to "confidant" to express the subtlety of the piano, the skill of the player, and the intoxication of the audience. In this poem, Li Bai used a lot of metaphor and symbols to describe the music vividly. In contrast, Bai Juyi's Song of the Pipa described the feelings of music more directly. The poem described the relationship between the pipa sound, the pipa player and the audience, expressing the mood of the pipa player being forced to play the pipa and the audience's admiration for the pipa player's skills and feelings. The poem used a large number of rhetorical devices such as personification and metaphor to make the music description more vivid. Li Bai's Listening to a Shu Monk Playing the Guqin and Bai Juyi's Song of the Pipa used a lot of rhetoric and figurative metaphor to make the music description more vivid and profound.
The appearance of the pipa master in Bai Juyi's Song of the Pipa is described as follows: Suddenly, a middle-aged woman dressed in white appeared at the side of the field, holding a huge pipa and gently playing it. The sound of her playing was as melodious as a waterfall. The identity of the player in Li Bai's "Listening to Monk Rui of Shu Playing the Qin" was not clear, but in the second half of the poem, he mentioned a player named "Monk Rui": The sound of the zither was like a whimper, like resentment, like admiration, like crying, like complaining. Between the plucking of the zither, the zither gradually became high-pitched and intoxicating. The beauty of the zither was like the gurgling spring breeze that refreshed one's heart. The description of the performer's appearance in the two poems emphasized the performer's musical talent and charm as well as the audience's intoxicated feelings.
Li Bai's "The Wine" and Bai Juyi's "Song of the Pipa" are classics in the history of Chinese literature. The following is their full text: "Drink Up" Don't you see that the Yellow River flows from heaven to the sea and never returns? Can't you see the bright mirror in the high hall sad, white hair in the morning like black silk, turning into snow in the evening? Life is full of joy, do not let the golden cup empty face the moon. I'm born with talent, I'm sure it'll be useful. Cook sheep, slaughter cattle, and enjoy the party. You must drink three hundred cups at a time. Master Cen, Dan Qiusheng, will not stop drinking. I'll sing a song for you, please listen to it for me. Bells, drums and jade are not worth being expensive. I hope I'll be drunk for a long time and don't wake up. Since ancient times, sages and sages have been lonely, only the drinker left his name. In the past, the king of Chen gave a banquet in Pingle to drink ten thousand taels of wine. Why should the host say that there is little money? I must buy it directly and pour it to you. I'll go out and exchange my five-streaked horse for fine wine to relieve my eternal sorrow with you. Song of the Pipa The big strings are like the rapid rain, and the small strings are like whispers. The noise was so loud that the pearls fell on the jade plate. The orioles in the pass whisper, the bottom of the flowers is slippery, the deep spring is difficult to flow under the ice. The icy spring is cold and astringent. The strings are frozen and frozen, and the sound is not heard for a while. There are other sorrows and dark hatred. At this time, silence is better than sound. The silver bottle suddenly broke, and the water burst out, and the cavalry rushed out with swords and spears ringing. At the end of the song, I pluck the strings carefully and draw the four strings. The sound is like tearing silk. East boat, west boat, silent, only to see the river center autumn moon white. I meditate, put the plucking string on the string, straighten my clothes, and get up. He said that he was originally a woman in the capital who lived under the toad tomb. At the age of thirteen, he learned the pipa and became famous in the first section of Jiaofang. After the song, I once taught good talents to dress up and make up, often being envied by autumn Niang. The young men of the Five Ling Dynasties competed to wrap their heads with a piece of red silk. The silver comb on the head of the mother-of-pearl hit the knot and broke the blood-colored silk skirt, turning the wine stain. This year's laughter will be the same as next year's autumn moon and spring breeze. My younger brother went to join the army and my aunt died. In front of the door lonely pommel horse rare eldest son married merchant woman. Merchants value profit and despise parting. A month ago, they went to buy tea from the pontoon bridge. Going to the river's mouth to guard the empty boat around the boat, the moon is bright, the river is cold. In the middle of the night, I suddenly dreamed of a young man doing things, crying in my dream. My makeup is red and my tears are dry. I heard the lute sigh and hear the words again. Why should we know each other when we meet again? Last year, I resigned from the capital and was demoted to Xunyang City. Xunyang is remote, there is no music, all year round did not hear the sound of silk and bamboo. I live near the Qijiang River, low and wet. Yellow reeds and bitter bamboos grow around my house. What do you hear in the morning and evening? cuckoos cry, blood apes wail. Spring river flowers in autumn moon night often take wine also alone pour. Are there no folk songs and village flutes? it's hard to listen to my hoarse voice and mocking. Tonight I hear your lute singing, as if listening to fairy music. Don't refuse to sit down and play a song for you to play "Pipa Song." Moved by my words for a long time, he stood up and sat down, urging the strings to turn faster. The mournful voice is not like the voice of the front, and the whole seat is covered with tears when it is heard again. Who cries the most among the guests? the green robes of Jiangzhou's Sima were wet.
I come out after a thousand calls, still holding a pipa half covering my face.
I still hold my pipa in my arms, half covering my face.
I come out after a thousand calls, still holding a pipa half covering my face.

The icy spring is cold and astringent, the strings are condensed and condensed, and the sound is not heard for a while. There are other sorrows and dark hatred. At this time, silence is better than sound. The silver bottle suddenly broke, and the water burst out, and the cavalry burst out with the sound of swords and spears. At the end of the song, I pluck the strings carefully. The sound of the four strings is like tearing silk. The boat in the east and the boat in the west are silent. Only the autumn moon in the middle of the river can be seen. 9 I meditate, pluck my bowstrings, straighten my clothes, and make myself solemn. 10 said that she was originally a woman from the capital who lived under the toad tomb.

The young men of the Five Ridges fight to wrap their heads in a piece of red silk that I do not know how many. 14 The silver comb on the head of the mother-of-pearl knocks the knot and breaks the blood-colored silk skirt, turning the wine dirty. This year's laughter will be the same as next year's autumn moon and spring breeze. My younger brother left the army and my aunt died. 17 The door is deserted, the pommel horse is rare, and the eldest is married to a merchant's wife. 18 Merchants value profit more than parting last month to buy tea on the bridge.
