Download or read book Bab Ballads And Savoy Songs written by W. H. Gilbert and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2016-03-10 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains a collection of verse written and illustrated by W. S. Gilbert. "The Bab Ballads" was written prior to his becoming famous for his comic opera "Librettos", and was integral to the development of his famous "topsy-turvy" style. This approach entailed silly situations being followed through to their logical conclusions - in hilarious style. This volume is highly recommended for lovers of comic literature, and is not to be missed by fans and collectors of Gilbert's work. William Schwenck Gilbert (1836-1911) was an English dramatist, illustrator and poet, most famous for the co-writing the Savoy operas with Sir Arthur Sullivan. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

Download or read book The Complete Plays of Gilbert and Sullivan written by Arthur Sullivan and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2019-11-20 with total page 967 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The following book is a collection of comic operas with the play itself being written by the dramatist W. S. Gilbert and the music composed by Arthur Sullivan. It includes their best known works: 'H.M.S. Pinafore', 'The Pirates of Penzance' and 'The Mikado'. Gilbert, who wrote the libretti for these operas, created fanciful "topsy-turvy" worlds where each absurdity is taken to its logical conclusion; fairies rub elbows with British lords, flirting is a capital offense, gondoliers ascend to the monarchy, and pirates emerge as noblemen who have gone astray. Sullivan, six years Gilbert's junior, composed the music, contributing memorable melodies that could convey both humor and pathos. Their operas have enjoyed broad and enduring international success and are still performed frequently throughout the English-speaking world.
