This is one of the finest versions of this song I have ever seen. The words are crystal clear, the soprano voices are crisp and sparkling. And the voices back off perfectly as the orchestra adds the flourishes.

@G6JPG Жыл бұрын
It's from a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, The Mikado I think. G&S tunes are still quite popular - and the plays are very popular with amateur dramatic companies, as it's hard to ruin them (though I've seen some good tries!), or to put it another way it isn't hard to perform them in a way that both audience and cast will enjoy; thus, if you've ever had anything to do with AmDram, you may well have heard it there. (Note: in the US, The Mikado is considered serious opera. Which it isn't! Like most G&S, it's light, with a large element of comedy.)
