Review by Joey Look

The Yeoman Of The Guard, an album by Gilbert & Sullivan, is an exceptional work of art that transports listeners back to the Victorian era. This album is a masterpiece of musical storytelling, and the intricate harmonies and catchy melodies make it an unforgettable experience.

The album features a wide range of musical styles, from the lively and upbeat "Tower Warders Under Orders" to the hauntingly beautiful "Is Life A Boon?" The vocal performances are outstanding, with each singer bringing their unique style and personality to their respective roles.
