(Ever since its premiere just over a century ago, The Mika...)
Ever since its premiere just over a century ago, The Mikado has consistently held the stages as one of the world's best-loved comic operas. The story tells how Nanki-Poo, son of the Mikado, overcomes all opposition to marry his sweetheart Yum-Yum. On the way he encounters such unforgettable characters as Ko-Ko, the timid tailor unexpectedly promoted to the rank of Lord High Executioner, and Pooh-Bah, Lord High Everything Else, who is so proud that he refuses to lift a finger - except on payment of a small fee... This exquisitely illustrated Easy Piano Picture Book incorporates easy-to-play versions of the most famous songs from the show including Three Little Maids from School, The Moon and I and Tit-Willow. It will delight Gilbert and Sullivan fans of all ages.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(The Yeomen of the Guard is one of the most popular and en...)
The Yeomen of the Guard is one of the most popular and enduring Gilbert and Sullivan Savoy operas. This critical performing edition, edited by Colin Jagger, Director of Music, University of Portsmouth, marks the 125th anniversary of the opera's first performance. The edition presents the opera as it was originally conceived, correcting errors found in older editions (regarding music, dialogue, and stage directions) and including unpublished songs and alternative endings. The vocal score is clear and practical as well as scholarly and authoritative, reflecting the editor's experience as a conductor. Full scores and clearly printed orchestral parts are available on hire/rental, and are consistent with the vocal score. In a further break with other editions, the vocal score includes the complete libretto.

(Utopia Limited is the second-to-last of Gilbert and Sulli...)
Utopia Limited is the second-to-last of Gilbert and Sullivans fourteen collaborations. Gilberts libretto satirises limited liability companies, and particularly the idea that a bankrupt company could leave creditors unpaid without any liability to its owners. It performed much less frequently than most other G&S operas, mainly because the subject-matter and plot are too obscure for modern audiences. Titles: In Lazy Languor Motionless; O Make Way For The Wise Men; In Every Mental Lore; Let All Your Doubts Take Wing; Quaff The Nectar; A King Of Autocratic Power We; Although Of Native Maids The Cream; Bold-Faced Ranger; First Youre Born; Subjected To Your Heavenly Gaze; Oh, Maiden Rich In Girton Lore; Some Seven Men Form An Association; Ah! Gallant Soldier; Its Understood, I Think; Oh, Admirable Art; Although Your Royal Summons To Appear; Oh, Zara!; A Tenor, All Singers Above; Words Of Love Too Loudly Spoken; Society Has Quite Forsaken; With Fury Deep We Burn; If You Think That When Banded In Unity; With Wily Brain; A Wonderful Joy Our Eyes To Bless; Then I May Sing And Play?; Oh, Would Some Demon Powr; When But A Maid Of Fifteen Year; Ah, Lady Sophy, Then You Love Me!; Oh, Rapture Unrestrained; Upon Our Sea-Girt Land; Theres A Little Group Of Isles Beyond The Wave.

(The “Bab” Ballads are a collection of light verse by Sir ...)
The “Bab” Ballads are a collection of light verse by Sir William S. Gilbert (1836–1911). In writing the Ballads, Gilbert developed his unique “topsy-turvy” style, where the humor was derived by setting up a ridiculous premise and working out its logical consequences, however absurd. The Ballads also reveal Gilbert’s cynical and satirical approach to humour. They became famous on their own, as well as being a source for plot elements, characters, and songs that Gilbert would recycle in the Gilbert and Sullivan operas. This edition is in the Deseret Alphabet.

(A lighthearted burlesque of Victorian English culture and...)
A lighthearted burlesque of Victorian English culture and the vagaries of love, The Mikado offers an ideal matching of William Schwenck Gilbert's elegant comedic gifts with Arthur Sullivan's agile and refined musicianship. The tale unfolds amid a fanciful version of Japanese society, in which a wandering minstrel has the misfortune to fall in love with the beautiful ward of the Lord High Executioner of Titipu. The sparkling lyrics and witty dialogue of this comic masterpiece are as much a delight to read as they are to hear with musical accompaniment. The complete libretto is reprinted in this edition from the standard performance text of The Mikado, complete with nine charming illustrations drawn by W. S. Gilbert himself.
