Table Of Contents

Disc 1. Overture -- List and learn -- Good morrow, pretty maids -- For the merriest fellows are we -- Buon giorno, signorine -- We're called gondolieri -- And now to choose our brides -- My papa, he keeps three horses -- Thank you, gallant gondolieri -- From the sunny Spanish shore -- In the enterprise of martial kind -- O rapture, when alone together -- There was a time, a time forever gone -- I stole the prince, and I brought him here -- But bless my heart -- Try we life long -- Bridegroom and bride -- When a merry maiden marries -- Kind sir, you cannot have the heart -- Then one of us will be a queen -- For ev'ry one who feels inclined -- Now, Marco dear, my wishes hear -- Then away they go to an island fair --(cont.) Disc 2. Oh happiness the very pith in Barataria -- Rising early in the morning -- Take a pair of sparkling eyes -- Here we are, at the risk of our lives -- Dance a cachucha -- There lived a king -- In a contemplative fashion -- With ducal pomp and ducal pride -- On the day when I was wedded -- To help unhappy commoners -- I am a courtier grave and serious -- Here is a case unprecedented -- Now let the loyal lieges gather round -- This statement we receive -- Once more gondolieri
