Program Notes
Masters of the operetta, Gilbert and Sullivan left the musical world a legacy of marvelously playful and tuneful songs. This entertaining medley includes: We Sail the Ocean Blue and (I'm Called) Little Buttercup from HMS Pinafore; Overture and Three Little Maids from Mikado; and Poor Wand'ring One, I Am the Very Model and With Cat-Like Tread from Pirates of Penzance.
