[@b.bailey8244]

I think this narrator did a great job! What fun; it's classical music DaDa :)

[@bobredley5915]

35 minutes of pure gobbledygook, fun and laughter

[@Conductorprod92]

i've been obsessing over these songs for a while now. I am eventually buying my own score

[@Rx-mn5fv]

What vocal dexterity! Fun.

[@doctorpangloss2385]

I would've loved to see Edith Sitwell sing Facade.

[@Teona.aka.Maria.Tureschi]

Thank you again :)

[@BenjiOrthopedic]

I've seen this performed with only like 6 players - cello, clarinet, a trumpet or two, percussion.

[@joseflindholm4581]

Marvelous!

[@ofrashay]

very very good!

Said Queen Venus, "Silenus, we'll settle between us the gourd and the cucumber narrow..."

[@loggats]

Where's the megaphone?

[@rogeriowolfsaban5387]

Muito bom mesmo!!

[@pjkhunold]

But that's no chamber orchestra.
Nevertheless, well done!

[@ianfraser4243]

This really needs a young voice....

[@tstsullivan]

the announcer seems to have a very bad throat disease.

[@b.bailey8244]

I think what you may mean by "bad throat disease" is the fact that he purposely exaggerates the ENUNCIATION - he plays with the words. I find it great fun - I can actually understand what he's saying, even when he goes really fast; so unlike so much of the crap out there today which is mumbled or screamed in a jumbled mess.

[@CynthiaDonnell-m4m]

I cannot find the announcer's name, but he sounds Dutch.

[@kenhunt278]

Yes, the announcer is surely Dutch and speaking Dutch
(which to be honest has always sounded to my ears as "German with a throat disease"). The singer is not.😅

[@PatRibsey]

Fail, Sir. Thomas

[@Steve20127]

One of the silliest pieces ever written. G and S did this patter stuff much better. Some folks will clap any old garbage.

What vocal dexterity! Fun.
