Gilbert & Sullivan's second most successful comic opera of its day, and now the most performed Savoy opera by amateur societies.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
A lighthearted burlesque of Japanese culture and the vagaries of love, and one of the most widely admired of all the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas. The sparkling lyrics and witty dialogue of this comic masterpiece are as much a delight to read as they are to hear with musical accompaniment. The complete libretto is reprinted in this edition from the standard performance text ofThe Mikado, complete with 9 charming illustrations drawn by W. S. Gilbert himself.
English playwright, librettist, and poet William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911) is chiefly remembered for the comic operas he created in collaboration with Sir Arthur Sullivan. Their best known works include The Pirates of Penzance and H.M.S. Pinafore.
