It isn't so much that the night was long, but that the Summer was (or wasn't, as the case may be). This was not one of S/A Cole's better seasons: in June, her family moved to Central Illinois; in July, the computer had a head crash that took until August to fix, and in that month, she was tired and sick from all the summer excitement. But, tush, I am puling. Now that Autumn is nearly here, things are getting back to normal (such as that is). Since there was no summer Nonsense, there is all kinds of stuff in this issue, including the answers to the Big Quiz, an extended "Where Can it Be?/The G&S Shopper", reports on the Sullivan Festival and MGS Annual Outing, and an analysis of Thomas Stone's The Savoyards' Patience. Let's see what's new. First of all, we owe the Savoy-Aires an apology. Oh, Members, How Say You, S/A Cole had sincerely believed that an issue of the What is it You've Done? Nonsense would be out in time to promote their summer production of Yeomen. As we know now, Member David Michaels appeared as the "First no Nonsense came out, and the May one didn't even Yeomen" in the Savoy-Aires' recent production of mention their address.

(It was either that, or "Say, why is everything either at Sixes or at Sevens?" because things in the Cole Household have been at multiples of 13 all over the place. But be that as it may.) Recently, during a discussion of drama with someone marginally familiar with the Gilbert and Sullivan operas, he remarked that they were too smart for their own good; that, from what he had read, the Jesse Helms-types would never have let them be performed. I responded that, I don't know about the ultra-conservatives, but these days, when a parody of Gone With the Wind is legally mistaken for a sequel, two (and possibly three or four) of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas would never have made it to the stage at all. There's Princess Ida ("A respectful per-version of Tennyson's The Princess"), Yeomen of the Guard (which had a lot of similarity with an earlier opera Maritana), possibly Sorcerer (with themes similar to those in L'Elisir D'Amore). And then there are the "digs" at well-known personalities in Pinafore and Patience. And, of course, there's the well-documented fears of "political incorrectness" at various times with Mikado. So isn't it great that Gilbert and Sullivan produced their work when they did: just think of all the joy that work wouldn't have been able to provide if they had tried to present it before or after Queen Victoria's Glorious (and what appear to be artistically generous) Days.

  • Discography Malcolm Walker
    Discography Malcolm Walker Tis discography was begun in 1984, following a commission from the Mackerras family to contribute to Nancy Phelan’s biography of the conductor, published in 1987. At the time, Sir Charles generously gave up a whole morning and went through his diaries to fill in a number of missing dates and facts, a gesture warmly appreciated by the compiler. In the intervening years the discography has been maintained and updated. Sir Charles’s recording career spanned 58 years and was extremely varied in scope. During that time he was never exclusive to a single company. His TFSWJDFTUP$[FDINVTJD FTQFDJBMMZ%WPǣÈL +BOÈƿFLBOE.BSUJOǰ DPOWFZFE his passion for a country that he first visited not long after the end of the 4FDPOE8PSME8BS)JTFOEFBWPVSTPOCFIBMGPG)BOEFM .P[BSU #FFUIPWFO and Brahms produced revelatory recordings – as did his devoted advocacy of Arthur Sullivan. Note by NS Te format of the entries is as follows: Date (year, month, day), venue, soloists, chorus, orchestra, label; title of work; catalogue number of CD, DVD or other format. In the interests of space and clarity, only CD catalogue numbers are given unless the recording in question has not been released on CD (for details of LP releases, readers are referred to Malcolm Walker’s earlier discography in Phelan 1987). It is a measure of the length of Mackerras’s recording career that his earliest record – of Pineapple Poll – was first issued on twelve 78 r.p.m. sides, and his latest were quickly made available as downloads as well as compact discs. Te present discography lists downloads in cases where no CD has been released, or where a commercially available download has superseded a previously issued CD.
