The Tower of London images set to the stirring music of Gilbert & Sullivan from "The Yeomen of the Guard." In Act I, Monica Sinclair as Dame Carruthers, the housekeeper of the Tower, sings the praises of the ancient fortress which has stood mute witness to undeserved imprisonment, torture and executions through the ages. Features a glimpse of the famous Ravens of the Tower. Legend has it that if the ravens ever leave the Tower of London, the White Tower, the monarchy, and the entire kingdom would fall. There are currently ten ravens (6 on duty and 4 young spares) stationed at the Tower who keep watch and ward.

  • Wasn't Monica Sinclair great in this- best i have ever heard in terms of vocal quality and dynamics as Carruthers.
