...which are usually well known after a few Dunce concerts, the group has its own favorites. They like to begin a program with something short, like "I Got Along Without You Before I Met You, I Can Get Along Without You Now." Another favorite opener is "Behold the Bridegroom Cometh", which features bass Roy Colemen's solos in an unbelievably low voice range...

As he had for Verdi's Don Carlo, Bing went to Broadway for his designer, commissioned new sets sketched by Robert Edmond (The Iceman Cometh) Jones.
