The Pirates of Penzance is perhaps Gilbert and Sullivan's most popular operetta, and tells the story of Frederic, who was apprenticed to a band of tender-hearted, orphaned pirates.

A Sullivan Ballad uses a hauntingly simple love duet, from the end of Act 2 "Ah, leave me not to pine alone and desolate" which is arranged here as a duet for flute and alto saxophone (or clarinet).

Both performers and audience alike will love this beautiful duet.
