San Francisco's Chinese New Years Parade is the best!
After the parade yesterday, my band--The Marianne Kent Band--See www.mariannekent.com/music-kent.htm --played for a party immediately following the annual celebration. Dressed in beautiful Chinese costumes, we played the Americana Chinese songs, like "Grant Avenue", "Love Look Away," and "You Are Beautiful" from "Flower Drum Song" plus a few others like "Chinatown," and "Slowboat to China."
After the Cocktail Reception, Yangqin and Piano, played authentic soft Chinese music on a dulcimer and zither as guest enjoyed a sumptuous feast provided by caterer, Dan McCall and Associates.
The ambiance and decor at this private home were breath-taking and even included little baby toy tigers clinging to each dinner chair, which the 37 guests took home with them.
All in all, the most festive party we have played this year.
Gung Hay Fat Choy!
