Randy Bowser - adapted "THE MIKADO" for community theatres

COMMENTS

"We could not have done our production of "The Mikado" without your help...The music was fantastic, and you have an obvious talent which was a great benefit for us.
I hope there will be opportunity to work with you again."

Sincerely
Cindy Hodge for Bethel Temple School


"I am very pleased that fans of and experts on Gilbert and Sullivan's classic operetta, "THE MIKADO", have sent me some much appreciated comments about the work I have done with adapting the score.

"Here are some quotes from those emails, commenting on the "virtual orchestra" CDs I have made available to community theatres which are interested in having a low-cost sure-fire money maker on their season." - RB


"I have to say I am very impressed"

"...your Mikado orchestrations...are lovely...sound quite nice, and are enjoyable to listen to...It's a nice, rich-sounding adaptation that will surely be valuable to companies that desire a sound larger than piano-only, but cannot afford a full orchestra...It does not sound mechanical at all, as one might expect from MIDI files."

"...enormously accomplished."

"The adaptation is well-crafted and should be able to find a grateful and receptive audience."

"I listened to your clips and they show great skill and ability with music technology. Bravo!"

"For small companies that don't have the resources, a recorded or Midi accompaniment is a god send."

"As a music technologist, you have done solid work."


Please visit my MIKADO site for information about the instrumental sound track recording of the full-length opera which is now available for theatres which cannot afford the expense of a full orchestra.
