Product Notes

(2-CD set) Avid presents the first full length collaboration between what was to become the famous Gilbert & Sullivan partnership - "The Sorcerer". CD #1 consists of our superbly re-mastered recording dating from 1953 and features the world famous D'Oyly Carte Opera Company under the direction of Isadore Godfrey. CD #2 comprises two contrasting interpretations of popular G&S songs performed by the D'Oyly Carte's brightest jewel Martyn Green and the famous Hollywood actor, singer and "hoofer" Danny Kaye! Best known for his tongue twisting songs, Kaye takes on nine G&S recordings in his inimitable style. Unreleased in the UK at the time, these parodies were considered too subversive by the highly protective D'Oyly Carte Company.
