From 1970s to now, Wolfgang Rihm has become one of the most influential music composers in the world. Contemporary music composing techniques are used widely in his composition and the expression of his inner feeling is stressed as well. Therefore, his composition is always flexible and free of theoretical limit. During tens of years, Rihm constantly adopts and shows different music styles drawing his attention in his composition and creates the style of his own. Hundreds of his works which have earned him much honor and fame consist of various styles from which we can see almost all performance forms. Till today, Rihm keeps chasing freedom and self-reliance in his composing career without any giving up.His expectation and target stand for his style shown in all his works like his name. His music loaded with his thoughts and feelings sails in the vast universe.Jagden und Formen(Hunts and Forms), which costs years of composing and consists of the largest and the longest pieces, is one of his most valuable works, which are considered as milestones during his composing life, because it adopts much in composing mind and technique. Therefore, we can thoroughly grasp the features of his composing mind and technique and understand his style during the period of composing better by analyzing and studying a work like Jagden und Formen, after which we can make a conclusion of his general style.According all above, the paper will take Jagden und Formen as the subject and cover some other works of or about the composer by explaining the pitch organization through pitch class set theory and pitch interval nature. It will explore the constant composing source based on the regular appearance in the rhythm world. The orchestration with the two forms of chamber music and orchestra together will be one of the issues here and it will be released how the composer respects and inherits the traditional composing mind and technique without giving up his own features by analyzing the thoughts of many voices and the form of music. Following all the above practice, the regulations and the ideas coming out of the aspects will be presented and the same will happen at the same time to the key special technique, which makes the piece so charming, the inner concrete content hidden behind the appearance and the composing style of theirs. Eventually, it will be considered as the target to promote from the stage of realizing the style and feature of the composing period to a new one of grasping and understanding the general composing feature of the composer himself.
