Misc. Notes This version was recorded after Rupert D'Oyly Carte changed the performance libretto to remove a racial epithet for black people. This non-D'Oyly Carte performance makes the now-customary change in "A more humane Mikado," but leaves "As someday it may happen" in its original state.

Extra Information There is some confusion about the actual date of issue for the Bosworth full score. The entry for this work (p.577) in James Fuld's The Book of World-Famous Music mentions an issue of 25 copies from Bosworth as early as 1893, despite the given date of 1898 in the biography by Arthur Lawrence published in 1899. The entry in Monatsbericht (1900), p.03 (October) is likewise mentioned, though this seems late.
