The Forbidden City [Alf:00-39544S]

Inspired by the ornate palace in Beijing, China, this arrangement is focused around the Chinese folk song "Jasmine Flower." The music is presented from the perspective of a person traveling towards the palace, with the grandeur, beauty, and spectacle gradually increasing with each step taken.
