The late Sir Charles Mackerras's recording of his own arrangements of 'moments' from the G&S canon under the title Pineapple Poll. Like Gaite Parisienne and Le Beau Danube it is a 'jukebox' ballet, built on cleverly assembled medleys, and it received it's first performance in 1951. The remainder of this CD allows listeners the opportunity to hear examples of original music composed by Sullivan, without Gilbert.
