Gilbert & Sullivan - The Gondoliers
A Brent Walker Production for BBC 1



Synopsis
With two handsome gondoliers and 24 prospective brides, you'd expect a problem or two. Wisely, Giuseppe and Marco "Let impartial fate/Select for us a mate!" A splendid plan, but complications ensue when a royal mystery arises. One of them is believed to be the King of Barataria, who was wed in infancy to the daughter of a duke. The gondoliers rule the palace in tandem until all is happily resolved with typical Gilbertian ingenuity.

Featuring the London Symphony Orchestra and the Ambrosian Opera Chorus and starring Eric Shilling, Keith Michell, Francis Egerton and Tom McDonnell.


About This Series
This video is part of a series produced originally for BBC.TV. With a production budget of $1,000,000 per opera, a special film set was created for each, and top stars from the world of opera and comedy were recruited for the leading roles. Here, Eric Shilling is the Duke of Plaza-Toro, and Keith Michell is Don Alhambra, the Grand Inquisitor. The London Symphony Orchestra and the world-acclaimed Ambrosian Opera Chorus perform Sullivan's music with exuberance and precision. A brief introduction by Douglas Fairbanks Jr explains the origins and context of the opera.
