Noel Quinlan: 10 Women of China

From out of the mist of time, the names of some extraordinary women still echo through the antiquity of China. Whether these names were associated with good or evil, beauty or perversion, strength or weakness, they reached a point in their lives when their reputations touched the collective consciousness, thereby ensuring their place in history and legend - forever.

10 Women of China is an original and contemporary musical epic inspired by some of the most famous female characters in Chinese folklore, and mythology. Combined with this are elements of spoken poetry and songs in several languages, including English, Mandarin, and French. For the first time, the stories of these women are presented to the international audience.

Noel Quinlan is a composer and producer best known for his culturally-fused "Middle Kingdom" series of recordings.

Kevin Orpin is a leading photographer and artistic director of international stature, renowned for producing large projects to the highest artistic standards the world over.

Together, they have created a stunning audio-visual package which will be available as a CD and coffee-table book, both featuring beautiful art photography of the characters, presented as never before.
