==Recordings== ''Princess Ida'' has received fewer professional recordings than most of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas. The D'Oyly Carte Opera Company recorded the piece four times, in 1924, 1932, 1955 and 1965, but the later two recordings have not been as well received as the earlier two. The BBC broadcast the piece in 1966 and 1989, but the recordings are unavailable. [[Ohio Light Opera]] recorded the opera in 2000.<ref name=Discog>Shepherd, Marc.
