Chinese New Year Instrumentals

Chinese New Year is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. Celebrated in places with significant Chinese populations, such as China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Macau, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and in Chinatowns everywhere, it marks the end of the winter season and is considered a major holiday for the Chinese, where it is known as "Spring Festival." Families gather for an annual reunion, and people buy presents, decoration, material, food, and clothing. Windows and doors are decorated with red color paper marked with themes of good fortune, happiness, wealth, and longevity. The celebration is often marked with festive parades and glorious fireworks displays.
