Note
VLOC is proud to bring you the D.C. area premiere of "When jealous torments rack my soul," Wilfred Shadbolt's song in Act I. This song was written by Gilbert and Sullivan, but was cut just before opening night and was not printed in any of the vocal scores. It survived in the autograph and in a copyist's score in the New York Public Library, from which the music we are using derives. We hope you enjoy its delayed appearance.
