Here is the love song of Mabel
Here is the love song of Mabel and Frederick. I don't have words embedded in this version, which is in "Music Box" form.
O Here Is Love And Here Is Truth And Here Is Proof of Joyous Laughter! He Will Be Faithful To His Sooth Till They Are Wed and Even After. O Here Is Love And Here Is Truth O Here Is Love And Here Is Truth He Will Be Faithful To His Sooth Till They Are Wed and Even After..... well, as for lyrics, the sound of the lyrics seemed more important to them and they often invented new words to have an elegant way to fit the phrasing. BUT I love the show. Yes, the version with Linda Ronstadt is the best, and you can tell her I said so. and...this is a sweet love song if you listen to it with a certain mindset. After all, theatre is about suspending disbelief. I believe it all, don't you? -- Michael -- <center><table border=1><tr><td>http://www.notation.com/discus/icons/mime_midi.gifO Here Is Love And Here Is Truth --midi-- O Here Is Love And Here Is Truth.mid (8.1 k)</td></tr></table></center> |

But was it sweet romance that drew us into Pirates of Penzance?
Maybe...but let us not forget the "trumpet's marshall sound". The opening piano is a little loud, but otherwise, this IS a very loud choral number. Since midi does no real human voices, one tries to be creative and assign instruments to special voices. Darling "Mabel" is assigned a trumpet here. This is also powerful satire for the end of the 19th century. <center><table border=1><tr><td>http://www.notation.com/discus/icons/mime_midi.gifGO YE HEROES GO AND DIE Go Ye Heroes Go And Die.mid (90.2 k)</td></tr></table></center> |
"With A Little Burglary!
"With A Little Burglary!" is the title of the tune borrowed by the public for "Hail, Hail, the Gang's All Here!"
In fact, this midi file is the Overture to Pirates of Penzance and includes: With A Little Burglary He Loves Thee, He Is Thine, tra la la la la la First Class Opportunity and several others. The last one mentioned buzzes along around 400 bpm. Joplin warned against playing ragtime too fast. Gilbert and Sullivan have no such warning and are a lark to hear fast. Audiences would scream for encores for performers to sing really fast. After all, I am the very model of a modern major general. ttfn -Michael- <center><table border=1><tr><td>http://www.notation.com/discus/icons/mime_midi.gifWITH A LITTLE BURGLARY With A Little Burglary.mid (82.1 k)</td></tr></table></center> |
