The Pirates of Penzance

or The Slave of Duty Vocal Score
The Pirates of Penzance, premiered in 1879, confirmed the comic genius of librettist W.S. Gilbert and composer Arthur Sullivan, following on the heels of their wildly successful H.M.S. Pinafore. Pirates invade the rocky coast of Cornwall in this topsy-turvy tale of love and duty, highlighted by the famous strains of Poor Wandering One, I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General, Oh, Is There Not One Maiden Breast and With Cat-Like Tread, Upon Our Prey We Steal. This vocal score includes the complete music and all dialogue, a plot synopsis, articles on the famous partnership and the history of The Pirates of Penzance, a filmography and a discography.
