All the popular songs and choruses from five G&S favourites performed by the most renowned interpreters of their music.
GILBERT & SULLIVAN
The Gondoliers:
From the sunny Spanish shore
There was a time
To help unhappy commoners
Then one of us will be a Queen
Iolanthe:
Love unrequited (Nightmare song)
None shall part us
If you go in, you’re sure to win
When I went to the bar
Though p’r’aps I may incur your blame
Ruddigore:
My boy you may take it from me
I know a youth
There grew a little flower
The battle’s roar is over
In sailing o’er life’s ocean wide
The Yeomen of the Guard:
Hereupon we’re both agreed
I’ve jibe and joke
When a wooer goes a-wooing
A man who would woo a fair maid
The Mikado:
A wand’ring minstrel I
Three Little Maids from school are we
As someday it may happen
The flowers that bloom in the spring
On a tree by a river a little Tom-Tit
Principals of the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company
Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
