To dwell on the absolute correctness of pitch and accuracy of every note of what is obviously a semi-professional if not amateur group would be not only pointless but cruel. This is a well paced, musically intelligent, and highly pleasing reading of Sullivan's enchanting score. Although I personally find some of the tempos slightly forced, I have heard "professional" performances of Iolanthe that were not in a league with this perfomance's buoyancy and musicality,. Bravo!
Frankly: out of tune at the start. It got better though.
If anyone wonders, a PERI means a kind of Persian angel-fairy
