SKU: A0.1416889
Composed by Sir Arthur Seymour Sullivan. Arranged by Marcus Martin. 19th Century,Opera. Score. 9 pages. Cornelius Edition (uk) #998477. Published by Cornelius Edition (uk) (A0.1416889).The overture to The Pirates of Penzance was composed in 1879 by Sullivan and his musical assistant Alfred Cellier. It follows the pattern of most Savoy opera overtures: a lively opening (the melody of "With cat-like tread"), a slow middle section ("Ah, leave me not to pine alone"), and a concluding allegro in a compressed sonata form, in which the themes of "How beautifully blue the sky" and "A paradox, a paradox" are combined. The orchestral score is here reduced to solo piano.
