Musilk is an autonomous poster design project to express classical music by graphics and typefaces，and the theme of these five posters is Beethoven’s sixth symphony "Pastoral". Beethoven added a title to each movement of this work to clarify the emotion (rather than the sense of picture) in the abstract music form, which is the first title music work in history. I used the German titles of five movements of the symphony as the main element of the poster design, and used different type design to convey the emotions expressed by the music. These original types tend to be more symbolic and retain a few graphic sense, which is in line with the relationship between the symphony's movement title, composition and arrangement.
Musilk是一个自发的海报设计项目，旨在用图形和字体来表达古典音乐。这一系列5张海报的主题是Pastoral，即贝多芬的第六交响曲“田园”，作者在这部作品的每个乐章里加入了标题的概念，用来明确抽象音乐形式中的情绪感（而非画面感），这也开启了标题音乐的先河。我将“田园”交响曲五个乐章的德语标题作为海报设计的主体，通过不同字形的设计来传达乐曲所表达的情绪，这些原创字形设计更多偏向符号感保留少数的图形感，符合了原作乐章标题与作曲和编曲的关系。
