Description:
This arrangement of a traditional Canton tune is a vivid, festive allegro that paints a picture of people holding and shaking large lion masks as they dance through the streets to celebrate the Chinese New Year. This music dates back to the Qing Dynasty (ca. 1644-1912), and is from the Canton province of southern China.
