The Operas of Gilbert and Sullivan

 

In recognition of their extreme scarcity and tremendous value, I present the complete series of recordings of the operas of Gilbert and Sullivan as originally broadcast on the BBC in 1966. The great merit of these broadcasts, in addition to the outstanding talent assembled and the generally high quality of the series, is that each performance is musically more or less complete and contain the entire unabridged spoken dialogue (whereas only a handful of the famous D'Oyly Carte series on the Decca label in the 1960s included dialogue). For this latter reason I have elected to post this series under the heading of audiobook so that W. S. Gilbert's consistently witty and extraordinarily clever dialogue will reach a wider audience who might otherwise be put off by the appellation of opera. Needless to say, the music of Arthur Sullivan (like Gilbert's contribution) remains as captivating and ingenious as when originally composed. As there are many recordings of the complete operas that exclude the spoken dialogue, I thought it proper to (initially, at least) direct this torrent to those with a particular interest in the dramatic arts.
