Harry Norris (1887-1979) was an English conductor and musical director, closely associated with the D’Oyly Carte Opera Company. He became an important figure in the recorded preservation of Gilbert and Sullivan.

In the Pristine catalogue he appears in the 1926 Mikado, part of the early recorded Savoy opera tradition.

Norris’s significance lies in practical style: pacing, clarity and the discipline required to keep Sullivan’s music and Gilbert’s words moving together.

His page is justified by Savoy history and catalogue context. Norris keeps the D’Oyly Carte machinery wound and ticking.
