Contents Disc 1. Overture -- If you want to know who we are -- A wand'ring minstrel I -- Our great Mikado, virtuous man -- Young man, despair, likewise go to -- And have I journey'd for a month -- Behold the Lord high executioner -- As some day it may happen -- Comes a train of little ladies -- Three little maids from school -- So please you, sir, we much regret -- Were you not to Ko-Ko plighted -- I am so proud -- Finale Act One.
Contents (cont.) Disc 2. Braid the raven hair -- The sun whose rays are all ablaze -- Brightly dawns our wedding day -- Here's a how-de-do! If I marry you -- Mi-ya-sa-ma, Mi-ya-sa-ma -- A more humane Mikado never did in Japan exist -- The criminal cried as he dropped him down -- See how the fates their gifts allot -- The flowers that bloom in the spring -- Alone, and yet alive -- On a tree by a river -- There is beauty in the bellow of the blast -- Finale Act two.
