Contents:
The Mikado. If you want to know who we are -- Gentlemen, I pray you tell me -- A wand'ring minstrel I -- The sun whose rays -- Here's a how-de-do --The flowers that bloom in the spring -- On a tree by a river a little tom-tit -- There is beauty in the bellow of the blast -- For he's gone and married Yum-Yum.
The Gondoliers. Buon giorno Signorine, we're called Gondolieri -- Take a pair of sparkling eyes ; Dance a chachucha, fandango, bolero -- I am a courtier grave and serious (Gavotte).
Iolanthe. Loudly let the trumpet bray -- Love unrequited -- When you're lying awake -- Soon as we may, off and away!
The Pirates of Penzance. Oh, better far to live and die -- Oh, is there not one maiden breast -- Poor wand'ring one -- When the foeman bares his steel, though to us it's evident.
H.M.S. Pinafore. We sail the ocean blue -- I'm called Little Buttercup -- My gallant crew, good morning -- Never mind the why and wherefore.
Various soloists ; Glyndebourne Festival Chorus, Peter Gellhorn, chorus master ; Pro Arte Orchestra, Sir Malcolm Sargent, conductor.

The Mikado. If you want to know who we are -- Gentlemen, I pray you tell me -- A wand'ring minstrel I -- The sun whose rays -- Here's a how-de-do --The flowers that bloom in the spring -- On a tree by a river a little tom-tit -- There is beauty in the bellow of the blast -- For he's gone and married Yum-Yum.

The Gondoliers. Buon giorno Signorine, we're called Gondolieri -- Take a pair of sparkling eyes ; Dance a chachucha, fandango, bolero -- I am a courtier grave and serious (Gavotte).

Iolanthe. Loudly let the trumpet bray -- Love unrequited -- When you're lying awake -- Soon as we may, off and away!

The Pirates of Penzance. Oh, better far to live and die -- Oh, is there not one maiden breast -- Poor wand'ring one -- When the foeman bares his steel, though to us it's evident.

H.M.S. Pinafore. We sail the ocean blue -- I'm called Little Buttercup -- My gallant crew, good morning -- Never mind the why and wherefore.
