OMG!! THIS IS GREAT!!!! Thanks for posting it !

@formby2 I have definitely seen some of the G & S video. Whether it survives in its entireity, I don't know, but at least part of it was shown on a PBS documentary about Dinah Shore around 10 years ago. It's the one on which Dinah's daughter did part of the narration about her mother.

I've actually seen the video that accompanies this song and I'm sorry it isn't here, because it is delightful! All three ladies contribute a bit of "ham" and they're all having great fun with it!
-
I adore this
-
What an unlikely combo--and yet it works! Thank you for posting this interesting little treasure.
-
The 3 icons of their individual genres, and the generation, on the one stage.
What other type of song could you possibly get these three to collaborate on?
What a rarity!
-
Me too, this was really great!!!

This is the best of early television. Ella Fitzgerald doing Gilbert and Sullivan? With a pop crooner?? And a leading classical operatic Soprano??? At the time each of these artists was at the top of their fields and the combination is great fun and a wonderful sound!

Like JoanNilson, I also saw this the night it was televised. Yes , Arkelk2010, they did have fun.!!!! --being 16 --dainty and operatically Japanese., in a Caballe/Arroyo/Tebaldi kind of way. OH, JoanNilsson , You didn't remind the readers that the three songstresses were attired in "authetic" Japanese dress complete with Japanese hair do's. . I hope somebody can find a photo of that night.and post it. Oh! StuartPapa58 in that crowd Ella did stand out. HaHaHa!

@pullformore No, they also did a trio of "Lover come back to me" in that same show and that's where the mic gag came in. A video clip of this was included in a documentary about Joan, so that's how I know. Sadly, I've never seen video of the G&S trio, but if the other survives then so must this!

She eventually, late in her career, sang the whole number (middle section of the number was cut in the TV show) in some Australian Opera galas...and she was the smallest one of the "Three LIttle Maids" (Heather Begg and Rosina Raisbeck were Pitti-Sing and Peep-Bo). Doesn't the harmony of Dinah and Ella sound lovely here? Great voices of a different type, and excellent musicians.
