A series of ten works for Two Grand Pianos dedicated to women who are game changers in their chosen pathways. From Marie Curie to Katherine Hepburn. Finishing with Eve. This work leaves areas in the score to improvise and each piece is preceded by a short life history of the woman, required by the performers to narrate to the audience, in any language they please.
