Topsy Turvy World of Gilbert and Sullivan

No musical partnership has enjoyed greater success during its time span than that of Gilbert and Sullivan in the later 19th century. No fewer than a dozen Savoy operas are still regularly performed. The operas present audiences with splendidly rich and satirical evocations of Victorian England and its society: the prime subject matter of this book!

Niciun parteneriat muzical nu s-a bucurat de un succes mai mare in timpul sau decat cel al lui Gilbert si Sullivan la sfarsitul secolului al XIX-lea. Nu mai putin de o duzina de opere din Savoy sunt inca jucate in mod regulat.
