"A Fireside book."
"The complete librettos of eleven operettas. The words and music of one hundred and two favorite songs."
Trial by jury: When first my old, old love I knew ; When I, good friends, was call'd to the bar ; With a sense of deep emotion ; Oh, gentlemen, listen -- The sorcerer: Time was, when love and I ; My name is John Wellington Wells ; Now to the banquet we press -- H. M. S. Pinafore: We sail the ocean blue ; I'm called Little Buttercup ; A maiden fair to see ; I am the Captain of the Pinafore ; Sorry her lot ; I am the monarch of the sea ; When I was a lad ; Refrain, audacious tar ; Things are seldom what they seem ; Never mind the why and wherefore ; Kind Captain, I've important information ; Carefully on tiptoe stealing ; He is an Englishman ; Farewell, my own --
The pirates of Penzance: When Frederic was a little lad ; Oh better far to live and die ; Climbing over rocky mountain ; Oh, is there not one maiden breast ; Poor wandering one ; Model of a modern Major-General ; When the foeman bares his steel -- Ah, leave me not to pine -- A policeman's lot is not a happy one ; With catlike tread -- Patience: Twenty love-sick maidens we ; I cannot tell what this love may be -- If you want a receipt -- When I first put this uniform on ; If you're anxious for to shine ; Prithee, pretty maiden ; Silvered is the raven hair ; The magnet and the churn ; Love is a plaintive song ; When I go out of door --
Iolanthe: We are dainty little fairies ; Good morrow, good lover ; None shall part us ; Loudly let the trumpet bray ; The law is the true embodiment ; Of all the young ladies I know ; Spurn not the nobly born; When I went to the bar ; Young Strephon is the kind of lout ; When all night long ; When Britain really ruled the waves ; Oh, foolish fay ; When you're lying awake ; Faint heart never won fair lady ; If we're weak enough to tarry -- Princess Ida: Ida was a twelvemonth old ; If you give me your attention ; Expressive glances ; Would you know the kind of maid --
The Mikado: If you want to know who we are ; A wand'ring minstrel ; Behold the Lord High Executioner ; I've got a little list ; Three little maids from school ; Were you not to Ko-Ko plighted ; For he's going to marry Yum-Yum ; Braid the raven hair ; The moon and I ; Brightly dawns our wedding day ; Here's a how-de-do ; From every kind of man ; My object all sublime ; The criminal cried ; The flowers that bloom in the spring ; Tit-Willow -- Riddigore: If somebody there chanced to be ; I know a youth ; My boy, you may take it from me ; When the night wind howls ; There grew a little flower -- The Yeomen of the Guard: When maiden loves ; When our gallant Norman foes ; Is life a boon? ; I have a song to sing, O! ; Where I thy bride ; Oh, a Private Buffoon ; Strange adventure ; A man who would woo a fair maid ; When a wooer goes a-wooing --
The Gondoliers: Roses white and roses red ; We're called gondolieri ; In enterprise of marital kind ; There was a time ; I stole the prince ; When a merry maiden marries ; O my darling, o my pet ; Rising early in the morning ; Take a pair of sparkling eyes ; Dance a cachucha ; There lived a king ; I am a courtier grave and serious.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Awesome submitted by loire on June 28, 2012, 3:45pm You cannot beat Gilbert and Sullivan. These operettas are awesome, there is a reason there are countless societies devoted to their music. We are so fortunate to have the oldest consecutively producing society in North American here in Ann Arbor. Check out the University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society productions, they are incredible.
