What defines Operetta?

[jamiebk]

Operetta?....Isn't she the one with the TV show and the book club?

Yes...correct. She is an operetta now, but prior to this (before her weight loss campaign) she was a standard "Opera"

They actually played music from Pirates of Penzance this morning! Orchestral, to be sure, but definitely G&S. Does Nicole Marie know about this?

[Shapley]

Well, it was Sullivan, at least. I see they don't list Gilbert in the 'music log' entry. I take it he's the wordsmith of the duo, and Sullivan is the musician?

[Shapley]

50% success, no?

[jamiebk]

Yes...the first time I heard it was on 7/31/06 at 5:48PM...we figured that Nicole had gone home for the day and someone slipped it in the mix (Scott?). We figured that we'd just keep quiet about it so she didn't notice...

Sullivan was the composer, also a gret cellist, and wrote a nice concerto or two for cello.

and if the movies are to be believed (gospel truth they are, no?), often composing while growling about Gilbert.

I believe G complained just as much about S.

You'd a thunk they was married!
