 Thanks to all involved in the Savoy Opera Chorale's recent performance of The Grand Duke. The Savoy Opera Chorale presented songs from "The Grand Duke" by Gilbert and Sullivan Society Hall, Nollamara The Savoy Opera Chorale performed The Grand Duke, Gilbert and Sullivan's final opera which debuted in the Savoy Theatre in March 1896. As an abridged concert version, the dialogue was omitted leaving the music (and some narrative) to do the talking which it does very well. I’m sure everyone will get the story – eventually!! Regardless, it’s a wonderful score and a lot of fun. We had a great line-up of principals with seasoned G & S member Ross Bryant leading the way as the miserly Grand Duke Rudolf of Pfennig Halbpfennig.
