Hardcover. Condition: Good. 232 pages. ex-library In Oh Joy! Oh Rapture! expert and enthusiast Ian Bradley explores the world o f Gilbert and Sullivan over the last four and a half decades, looking at the way this phenomenon is passed from generation to generation. Taking as his starti ng point the expiry of copyright on the opera libretti at the end of 1961 and us ing fascinating hitherto unpublished archive material, Bradley reveals the extra ordinary story of the last years of the old D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, the guar dian of Savoy tradition for over a hundred years, and the troubled history of it s successor. He explores the rich vein of parodies, spoofs, and spin-offs of the songs, as well as their influence on twentieth century lyricists and composers. He analyzes professional productions across the world, looks at the unique plac e of G&S in schools, colleges, and universities, and lovingly explores the c ulture of amateur performance. He also uncovers the largely male world of the ob sessive fans, those collecting memorabilia, the myriad magazines, journals, webs ites, and festivals devoted to G&S, and the arcane interests of some of the faithful inner brotherhood.
