Princess Ida (Act 1)-G&S-1955,Pratt,Godfrey,D'Oyly Carte

This lyrical, three act opera was first performed in 1884. It is positioned following 'Iolanthe' and precedes 'The Mikado'. The libretto satirizes women's education which, back in Gilbert's day, was just coming into fashion. This is the D'Oyly Carte 1955 recording, not recorded stereophonically. (Decca's first two stereo G&S recordings were 'Pirates of Penzance', and 'The Mikado', both with Peter Pratt, recorded in 1957).
