About

The Gilbert & Sullivan comic operas were composed between 1871 and 1896 in Victorian London. Their sparkling musical scores by Sir Arthur Sullivan and their dazzling lyrics by Sir William S. Gilbert have kept them popular throughout the world ever since. They've been called the "Saturday Night Live" of their day for their satiric appeal, but they have proven universal and timeless in their comic and ironic treatment of human foibles through their "airy persiflage" and "innocent merriment." And the popular appeal of the music has endeared them to millions who cherish "laughing song and merry dance." They are arguably the most popular musical comedies ever written for the stage.

Description

Join Gilbert & Sullivan Austin for a delightful afternoon of engaging music, delicious treats, and good company!

A salon concert in Victorian England was music for an evening at home with friends. An evening out meant taking in the symphony or the opera, but an evening in was no less musical. Society matrons would host a “salon,” inviting the most accomplished musicians to perform for their friends: songs for voice and piano from home composers and from the Continent. New songs as well as treasured classics, in a beautiful and intimate setting that Sir Arthur Sullivan himself would have frequented.

Pianist Karl Logue is joined by some of Austin’s finest singers to present this Tea Time event: A Victorian Music Salon.

Your ticket includes an English afternoon tea with finger sandwiches and Victorian sweets and savories, and beverages.such as tea, coffee, wine and more. This event requires reservations and has very limited seating.
