This short extract was from the The Gilbert & Sullivan Society of North Louisiana's 1999 production of HMS Pinafore, directed by John Matthews. Superb local baritone Richard King, as The Rt. Hon. Sir Joseph Porter, KCB, First Lord of the Admiralty, informs the assembled party how he came to be "Ruler of the Queen's Navee." This was recorded on a modest Sony camcorder with on-board microphone. The performance was, of course, not amplified in any way - true G & S. John Matthews is "old school" "If you can't be heard at the back of the auditorium, you have no business being on stage!". + Informações

[HMS Pinafore] by Gilbert and Sullivan British Tar A British tar is a soaring soul As free as a mountain bird His energetic fist should be ready to resist A dictatorial word His nose should pant and his lip should curl His cheeks should flame and his brow should furl His bosom should heave and his heart should glow And his fist be ever ready for a knock-down blow His eyes should flash with an inborn fire His brow with scorn be wrung He never should bow down to a domineering frown Or the tang of a tyrant tongue His foot should stamp and his throat should growl His hair should curl and his face should scowl His eyes should flash and his breast protrude And this should be his customary attitude. + Informações

I've recently began approaching the comic operas of Gilbert and Sullivan, probably because I've fallen for the film "Topsy-Turvy", and I've found them delightfully charming and comical, so I've decided to post a section from the pair's first huge success, "HMSPinafore", the tremendously successful Act One Finale. The opera's gentle satire builds on a classical theme for Gilbert theme of love between members of different social classes, also poking good-natured fun at the Royal Navy and, in themes to be repeated in the later operas, parliamentary politics and the rise of unqualified people to positions of authority. The title of the work itself is humorous, as it juxtaposes the name of a little girl's garment, pinafore, with the symbol of a naval warship. The plot itself revolves around a naval captain's daughter who is in love with a lower-class foremast hand (a common sailor, well below officer rank), even though her father intends her to marry the First Lord of the Admiralty, the cabinet minister in charge of Britain's Royal Navy. As with most of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas, a surprise twist changes matters dramatically near the end of the story with everything happily resolved. The finale's narrative is as follows: Ralph, the sailor in question, after being denied his feelings by Josephine, his love, summons his shipmates, and tells them he is bent on suicide. He puts a pistol to his head, but as he is about to pull the trigger Josephine enters, proclaiming she .... + Informações
