理查•史特勞斯於一八八五年聽從亞歷山大•里特建議後開始創作標題音樂，其中七首的音詩作品，更是理查•史特勞斯相當重要的作品之一。音詩《唐吉訶德》便是以西班牙作家塞萬提斯作品為腳本所創作，理查•史特勞斯不僅以引導動機及音畫手法描寫故事場景，更藉此故事寓意來諷刺時事、紓發不滿。
本文主要分為兩大部分，第一部分簡述理查•史特勞斯生平及其音詩作品特色。第二部份則從其變奏架構、動機發展、音畫手法、配器音色及和聲語彙來分析《唐吉訶德》，並且進而討論曲中節奏、技巧及術語之詮釋。

After 1885, Richard Strauss began to create program music due to Alexander Ritter’s suggestion. Among these works, the most important were the 7 tone poems. Tone poem 《Don Quixote》 was composted according to the play created by the Spanish writer Cervantes. Richard Strauss not only expressed the story by leading motive and tone painting, but also satirized the society. Furthermore, he unleashed his angry by the meaning of the story.
My essay is divided into two major parts. The first is the biography of Richard Strauss as well as the characteristic of this tone poem. The second is the analysis of variation structure, motive development, tone painting skill, orchestration timbre and harmony disposition. I still discuss the rhythm, skill and terminology in advanced.
