Composed by Sir Arthur Seymour Sullivan. Arranged by Joshua Tyra. Broadway,Classical,Contemporary,Musical/Show,Opera. Score. 24 pages. Joshua Tyra #1921963. Published by Joshua Tyra (A0.953893).The definitive musical score of the "Biblical Philologist" song, the internet (semi-)sensation sung by Joshua Tyra on his YouTube channel.

Perfect for Gilbert and Sullivan societies looking for a fresh take on an old favorite. Also guaranteed to enliven parties and amateur theatricals held by Old Testament/Hebrew Bible/ANE studies departments or Christian/Jewish seminaries. Included here are both the piano-vocal score and a vocals-only part for ease of rehearsal (24 pages total). Lyrics by Joshua Tyra, inspired by William S. Gilbert. Music by Sir Arthur Sullivan, with additional arrangements by Joshua Tyra (inspired by William Elliott's whimsical orchestrations for the 1981 Broadway production).
