About
Decca’s earliest recordings of G&S with the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company were made between 1949 and 1955 in mono. In 1957, the first in a new series of stereo recordings was initiated with The Pirates of Penzance, culminating in 1966 with The Sorcerer; between 1967 and 1979 a second series of recordings was made.
