The gondoliers or the king of Barataria, 16 juin 2011
Ce commentaire fait référence à cette édition : Gilbert & Sullivan - The Gondoliers / Michell, McDonnell, Egerton, Opera World [Import USA Zone 1] (DVD)
This is real Gilbert and Sullivan from witty conversation to great music. And of course the twists and turns of culture and educate. Almost a Greek play turns out one of two republican gondoliers is in reality the king of Barataria and that is just for starters . Keith Michell (also played in Ruddigore) as Don Alhambra del Bolero does not have a lot of stage time but a great presents.
On the whole this presentation was quite satisfying.
