Commissioned by Tamagawa Academy Junior High School Band (Kazuhiko Tsuchiya, director) in 2005

This arrangement freely combines selections from the original operetta, including "Overture," "The Chinese Ballet," "The Prophet Of The Blue Pagoda," "Chinese Wedding Procession," and "You Are My Heart's Delight."

While some aspects may not adhere strictly to the original, except for the addition of several countermelodies and modifications in structure, this arrangement closely mirrors the original composition's sentiment.
