Five Songs for Baritone and Piano. Par SAMUEL RHIAN. / Répertoire / Baryton et Piano

W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan produced several of the most popular operas and operettas of all time.

A great vocal collection of ten musical theatre classics in their original keys. Includes matching CD with full performances of each song by professional artists and piano accompaniments for practice.
