Reviews of the pirates of penzance

“Their [MasterVoices chorus] buttery tone and diamond-sharp diction were simply delicious, as was Ted Sperling’s agile, airy conducting of the Orchestra of St. Luke’s.” – The New York Observer

“It is truly breathtaking to have a 100 person chorus back Broadway and Opera veterans and City Center was awash in glorious musicality.” – BroadwayWorld.com
