Yan Feng's publicly available information is limited, and his writings center mainly on music appreciation and familiar essays. Five of his works are held in the collection, including Music Notes, Random Talk on the Piano, Music Everywhere, Thus Have I Heard, and Please Come to a Musical Feast; several appear as volumes of the Xin Fengnian Collected Works, showing that his writing continues the tradition of musical essays. Most of these books fall under the categories of prose and miscellaneous writings and film and television, focusing on the experience of listening—discussing works, performers, and personal impressions in a relaxed, plain style that is both informative and readable. Through short essays, Yan Feng guides readers into the world of music, turning listening experience into approachable prose and developing his own character in popularizing music appreciation and bridging literature and music. His work suits general readers interested in musical essays.
