D'Oyly Carte Opera Company's 1973 video recording of H.M.S. Pinafore dubbed with their studio version starring John Reed.
Downloaded, edited and uploaded via smartphone using the one and only video recording that I could find online, hence its low resolution.

I know a lot of people will probably disagree with but for me John is the best in the patter roles. He doesn't try to over act or clown around and he plays the part to perfection and his crystal clear diction even in the fastest songs is an utter pleasure to listen to.

@pathuey7194 Год назад

Agree 100 percent. John Reed is the best!

It is a signature of the D'oyle G&S recordings.

You are right, John Reed is the best. However, his diction is so good in this song because the person posting it here has replaced the music from this 1973 video of Pinafore with the music from the 1959 recording. The fascinating thing is that the tempi are the same so that it works. I first noticed it because Cousin Hebe did not sound like Pauline Wales. Then, I remembered that Reed’s diction on the 1973 video differs from the 1959 recording. In 1973, he must have had trouble with his teeth, because “such” had become “shuch”. The same can be said of the 1971 recording where the same happened.

@@DanielJames-dg2zs thanks for the info. I applaud your knowledge on the subject. I love hearing interesting being the scenes information like that.

@@jackanorybiggins I think what the D'Oyly Carte company did was adhere to Gilbert's philosophy that his operas were funnier when the actors took them more seriously, due to the contrast against the ridiculous scenarios they were in. Personally, while I don't fully agree with that take, I at least respect where Gilbert was coming from, and others' decision to go with that way of thinking, but I also respect, say, the Stratford Festival's approach of making it more over-the-top and farcical, as that has its own comedic value that many might prefer.

Interesting... As many times i have seen Reed on stage and in Pinafore, I never noticed it, but he has a habit of tugging the front of his waistcoat at the end of each stanza. Hardly a big deal, and I suppose if you have been playing this role for 25yrs with the DOC you have to break the monotony with some bossiness. And yet, I have seen Green, Pratt and Reed and each added their distinct brand to the role.

Is there a reason why you decided not to use the sound track from the video, but the one from the 1959 recording? It is incredible that the tempi are so much alike that it works, but I would have preferred to listen to Pauline Wales as Hebe rather than Joyce Wright, especially when it is Pauline Wales performing.

@Max_m 5 месяцев назад

I prefer performances where the character takes himself more seriously as that was part of the point. Part of the satire was that he thought it was totally legitimate to be named head of the navy (a fact the audience of course knows is false)

@pathuey7194 Год назад

Say, does anyone know where I can find the full recording of this wonderful show? Sadly, youtube no longer has it, nor does Amazon.

Dumb RU-vid decisions of inactive accounts. A lot of valuable information has been lost lately. This is the burning of the Library of Alexandria of the XXI century, there is a lot of videos I can't find anywhere else that has been deleted. I guess new Fortnite videos are more important than keeping the culture of the human kind.

I found both the audio and video on youtube by searching up "HMS Pinafore." The audio from under "Stay On Target's" profile and the video from, "David Rumelle's."
