Melville-Mason A song from Gilbert & Sullivan's operetta Iolanthe, arranged for semi-flexible woodwind combination of two flutes plus either B-flat clarinet or bassoon. This jaunty tune could be a fun recital piece or just a nice addition to general repertoire.
W S Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan were major figures in musicaltheatre of the Victorian era, collaborating on a series of extremely popularcomic operettas, which lampooned some of the fashions and conventions of thetime.
This duet from the second act of Iolanthe involves Strephon, the half-fairy, half-mortal son of thetitular character, and Phyllis, the lady whom he loves. The two have just become reconciled after arift and recognise that they should marry quickly, before they lose theirattraction for one another, or one of them falls for someone else.

Not difficult, but requires sensitivity & dynamic control. Suitable for recitals, church meditations, or school programs. School Years First of all, Sullivan attended music school at the Royal Academy of Music. Because Sullivan was so talented, the Academy awarded him the Mendelssohn Scholarship for two years in a row. He, therefore, studied with John Goss, who studied with Thomas Atwood, who in turn studied with Mozart. Sullivan similarly studied the piano at the Academy with Arthur O’Leary. Study Abroad During his first year, he also earned money by singing solos in the Chapel Royal. At the end of his second year, the Academy consequently continued his scholarship and sent him to study at the Leipzig Conservatoire. He certainly studied composition, and likewise counterpoint and piano. Hence, during his final year in Leipzig, Sullivan finally completed his graduation composition project: Incidental Music for Shakespeare’s The Tempest. Association with Gilbert It seems like Sullivan built the bulk of his composing career largely in the 1860s. As a result, he became famous for his incidental music for the Tempest and his Irish Symphony. He, therefore, began collaborating with the poet W. S. Gilbert in the 1870s. Rather than focus on serious opera, Gilbert and Sullivan, in contrast, concentrated on comic opera such as H. M. S. Pinafore, the Pirates of Penzance, and the Mikado. Therefore, certainly as a result of his education and experience, Sullivan composed a total of 24 operas, 11 symphonic works, 10 choral pieces. Even more, he wrote a large number of noteworthy hymns such as Onward Christian Soldiers. Lost Chord The general style of his music is maybe similar to Mendelssohn, Schumann, and perhaps Liszt. It seems like Sullivan was fond of writing distinct melodies for each character in his operettas. His melodies combine together as the characters did. Furthermore, he was a master orchestrator, and therefore played the flute, clarinet, trumpet, and trombone fluently. The Lost Chord Sullivan wrote his most noteworthy song the Lost Chord in 1877. As a result, it was a great success and was certainly performed all over the world by a variety of singers such as Enrico Caruso. Because Sullivan was the most famous composer in England, the Lost Chord became the most famous of all British or American songs of the 1870s and 1890s. Consequently, in 1888 Thomas Edison recorded The Lost Chord for the phonograph. It was one of the first songs ever recorded. Furthermore, Queen Victoria knighted Sullivan in 1883.

Bill Malcolm #699718. Published by Bill Malcolm (A0.1139015). This arrangement was originally done for flute quartet. It has a coda of another Sullivan hymn, Onward, Christian Soldiers, which I liked and added. Unfortunately, the Lutheran Church I did the arrangement for, had removed that hymn from their hymnal as being too militant and were not amused by my addition. If it is played at a religious service, maybe end it at measure 70. To be a Regular Royal Queen - 2 flutes, oboe & clarinet/bassoon

Concert,Opera,Standards. 15 pages. C Melville-Mason #6867583. Published by C Melville-Mason (A0.956673). This tune comes from The Gondoliers, the twelfth of the Victorian comic opera collaborations between WS Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan. The Gondoliers premiered in December 1889 and ran for 554 performances. To be a Regular Royal Queen is part of the finale to Act 1. Two of the principal gondoliers and two of the contadine sing of what they perceive as the perks of being royalty – such as rich clothing, valuable possessions and being universally admired and respected.The piece makes a joyful, appealing arrangement for the four-part mixed woodwind combination of 2 flutes, oboe and either clarinet in B-flat or bassoon. It has been classed as 'intermediate' as, although it appears quite challenging, various adult learner groups have managed it surprisingly successfully.
