        台灣知名古箏演奏家陳淑芳小姐(藝名逸弦)，大學期間即應邀古箏獨奏及宋詞古唱,使千年古調重現音律,享譽全台。至今二十多年來積極從事古箏演奏、教學及創作。於1983年即榮獲國家古箏獨奏「金琴獎」, 並被譽為最有潛力的演奏家。並多次獲台南縣及台南市政府頒發優良指導獎。她在1997年即首演晨曦作曲《牡丹花開艷艷情》，後與中國古箏演奏家王中山先生合作演出”漢江韻”三重奏，與中國魔笛余遜發先生合作演出”秋湖月夜”二重奏；也曾創作及改編醒獅舞曲、採蘑菇的姑娘及新鴛鴦蝴蝶夢等數十篇樂曲、改編《天黑黑》為古箏三重奏.  陳淑芳曾任台南市立民族管絃樂團專業古箏演奏員、逸弦箏樂團團長、台南絲竹樂團副團長及港台古箏大賽評審委員等。

民族管絃樂團音樂總監李進輝先生說: 淑芳的古箏音樂醇美，重而不燥、輕而不浮、緩急有序、剛柔並濟，將中國音樂的美自然流露，每次看她在舞台上演奏，無論是濃厚的古曲風格，亦或活潑的現代樂曲，所詮釋出來的風格，獨道細膩、情感豐富，堪稱箏界好手。

陳小姐於2004年移民美國, 致力於作曲、編曲、及中國音樂的傳承工作。受邀參加許多國際性的活動演奏古箏,獲得讚賞。並於2008年在亞特蘭大創立逸弦箏樂團，擔任音樂總監，期盼將古箏音樂的美,繼續介紹給世界各族群。
