Scottish Opera presents "Dance a Cachucha" from The Gondoliers by Gilbert & Sullivan

We couldn't bring you The Gondoliers just yet but we don't want you to miss out on the fun and madness of Gilbert and Sullivan.
Dance a cachucha, fandango, bolero,
Xeres we’ll drink- Manzanilla, Montero-
Wine, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances!
To the pretty pitter-pitter-patter
And the clitter- clitter- clitter- clatter
Clitter- clitter- clatter
Pitter-pitter-patter
Patter, patter, patter, patter we’ll dance.
Old Xeres, we’ll drink-Manzanilla, Montero;
For wine, when it runs in abundance, enhances
The reckless delight of that wildest of dances!
Brought to you by The Orchestra of Scottish Opera and The Chorus of The Gondoliers during lockdown 2020

I love this! I'm learning it, and have to slow it down to practice it. Your speed is incredible. The pets - and people - are adorable.

The man dancing with his cat tickled me.

When I was about 6 years old my parents bought the LP of The Gondoliers. I used to sing along to all the songs, but this was my favourite, and it still is. Thanks for sharing.

This is wonderful on a number of level. Never mind the staggering talent performing this, and putting it together, but I love the inclusivity. As a singer, it bothers me that our instrumental collaborators are overlooked so often. I love that they were featured through the entire video. Loved this from start to finish! Bravi tutti!

Stupendous!

Due to be seeing this the coming Saturday at Hackney Empire. Sad that it’s postponed, but this raised the spirits!

What an amazing production! It's such a hard piece to sing, strictly professionals only territory. Very well done. Great IT work also.

Brilliantly wonderful, thanks so much! Maureen Cairney.
