Yeomen of the Guard...


For those of you who, like me, appreciate Gilbert & Sullivan I found this gem on YouTube. A 1974 BBC production of The Yeomen of the Guard which rivals even D'Oyly Carte. Janet Hughes, the finest mezzo-soprano I have ever heard (though relatively obscure), is Phoebe. Enjoy!

  1. Thank You, Patricius, for this excellent Post. I found it marvellous entertainment. I tend to prefer Dame Janet Baker, however, as the best mezzo-soprano.

    in Domino.
