I've just looked this up on Amazon - interesting! Multi-tracked cello. I'll look out for a copy.

Watched a couple of nights ago with the missus ...
This production is enjoyable and irritating in about equal measure!
It's done as much as a farce as a conventional G&S production, and Jon English's ego has to be seen to be believed. But for a left-field Mikado it's worth an occasional viewing.
David Gould as the Mikado is a pretty amazing bass, not to mention an amazing physique! ....
