About

This is not the well-known short version introduced by the D'Oyly-Carte company, but THE ORIGINAL 1866 VERSION - this recording was first issued on limited edition cassette by the Sir Arthur Sullivan Society in 1984 and was highly praised. In 1995, a reviewer in "BBC Music Magazine" expressed his wish to see this production on CD, and so here it is!
