Composed by Sir Arthur Seymour Sullivan and Sir William S. Gilbert. Arranged by Scott S. Stewart. 19th Century,Children,Opera,Pop,Standards. 18 pages. Scott S. Stewart #727363. Published by Scott S. Stewart (A0.1126715).W. S. Gilbert’s poem “I have a song to sing, O” set to music by Arthur Sullivan in ‘The Yeoman of the Guard’ or, The Merryman and His Maid’ (1888) is an example of a ‘cumulative’ song – where each verse gets progressively longer. It originally appears as a duet in the G&S opera, and gained popularity outside that world with Peter, Paul and Mary’s rendition, as recorded on their 1969 album “Peter, Paul and Mommy.” – introducing the world of G&S to a completely new audience. This arrangement is for 4-part SATB ensemble with piano accompaniment. It is an excellent introduction to the music of Gilbert & Sullivan, a teachable moment about form, and a perfect sing-a-long tune to include on any family oriented, community outreach program. Performance time: 3:35+-.
