Chu Chin Chow

Album by Frederic Norton & Sinfonia of London & John Hollingsworth

Chu Chin Chow is a 1916 stage musical composed by Frederic Norton. The music blends Edwardian musical-theatre idioms with exoticised eastern motifs, featuring rich orchestral colour, choral passages and popular-song structures typical of early 20th-century West End productions, and it established Norton's reputation in British musical theatre during the First World War.
First released: 1980
