	Recordins of Pineapple Poll
		This was Charles Mackerras's first recording of Pineapple Poll.
		This recording includes a suite from Pineapple Poll (eight of the eleven numbers), allowing room for a suite from the ballet The Lady and the Fool, also arranged by Mackerras, from music of Verdi.
		Ironically, the Verdi material diminishes one's measure of Mackerras's achievement in Pineapple Poll, as the two pieces sound extremely similar, which suggests that Mackerras is not the master orchestrator many GandS fans have given him credit for.

		Pineapple Poll has been recorded at least seven times, including four alone by its creater, Charles Mackerras.

	Gilbert and Sullivan never looked better
		The story line of "Poll" is a poem by William Gilbert that precedes the story of "Pinafore," and the music is a mosaic from all the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, arranged originally by Charles Mackerras and rearranged for a smaller orchestra by the G&S Society's music director, Bernard Kwiram.
		Byrd is not known for the frivolous, but he could be: "Poll" is a very funny romp, imaginative and fast-moving, and his dancers throw themselves (literally) into it.
		The society also designed and made the ballet costumes for "Poll," a specialized job, but in Erickson's day job as costume design area head for Cornish College of the Arts, he has designed for many area theater companies as well as Pacific Northwest Ballet.

		Hostas ‘Pineapple Poll’ and ‘Pineapple Upside Down Cake’ It isn’t fair to torment hosta collectors with plants that aren’t available, but we think this combination is a winning pair to aim for.
		‘Pineapple Poll’ ($8) has long been a hosta to love.
		This spring at Hosta College we purchased a new gold-centered sport of ’Pineapple Poll’ from Bob Solberg of North Carolina, and its name is ‘Pineapple Upside Down Cake.’ It is a young plant, but we suggest you look for it in the display gardens this year.

		The threat of bankruptcy at the box office has been successfully banished for the second time this year by the Royal New Zealand Ballet, thanks to the Company's truly inspired decision to stage Petrouchka.
		It has brought new experiences and challenges to the dancers while helping to diminish the company's accumulated deficit, and it has brought in new audiences, especially in Auckland.
		It is to be hoped that these new audiences can forgive the Company for pairing Petrouchka with Pinapple Poll, a 1960s adaptation of Gilbert and Sullivan themes which today seems vacuous rather than witty or amusing.

		Pineapple Poll, is a spoof of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas.
		According to Charles MacKerras, the British conductor who composed this ballet, “The score is a patchwork quilt of tunes from most of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas.” The plot revolves around Pineapple Poll and her colleagues who are all madly in love with the captain of the good ship H.M.S. Hot Cross Bun.

		This LP transcription is not ideal, there being a shift of middle registers to the upper end of the spectrum.
		In the Pineapple Poll suite some electronic sharpening has been provided to lift the treble frequencies.

		Oh and I remember David Blair in Pineapple Poll 'with his sisters and his cousins whom he measures off in dozens......" - great fun and a lovely score.
		I think both Pineapple Poll and Lady and the Fool as well as some of Cranko's other ballets are overdue for revival.

		I'm all for cheerfully entertaining ballets like Pineapple Poll and Fille to complement the deep and meaningful serious stuff that abounds.
		So I think Poll is eminently revivable, not least because it would teach dancers to act with charm and subtlety.

	Classical Net Review - Gilbert & Sullivan - Princess Ida
		The opera is split into three acts and after a sprightly overture we are thrown pell-mell into a load of memorable and wonderfully tuneful numbers that are so characteristic of Sullivan at his best.
		The 1965 recording is beautifully crisp and clear giving an added bonus to the recording which has been resurrected in its original cover.
		I have recently reviewed some new Testament discs with Sir Charles Mackerras conducting his own Verdi arrangements and this famous recording of 'Pineapple Poll' is no less desirable for the collector.
