Full of Happiness (喜洋洋)
Now for something a little bit different: a traditional Chinese New Year song played by a Chinese instrumental ensemble.
Had a jam session with a few friends who also play traditional Chinese instruments at my place yesterday, and this was the best song we played together - which to the best of my knowledge is so old it is not copyrighted (and I can therefore upload it here). The sound quality was surprisingly clear, considering I recorded the track on video using a digital camera then ripped the audio out as an mp3.
Featuring Sarah on Chinese bamboo flute; Andrew, Juele and Alvin on erhu (Chinese 2-stringed violin), me on zhongruan (Chinese plucked string alto instrument) and Malcolm on keyboard.
To "guest" who wanted to use my song for your animation: Sure. But on the condition that you credit me and my friends for the music and let me see the finished product :) (Post a link here
Hello! This is random but I am making an animation and I need a song for it. This is the perfect song i need! I wanted to see if I could use it?
Love hearing something different like this, ancient songs played by real people! Thanks Helen! -Kavin./Breaking Light/Coelocanth
