  Nothing shows the relentless passage of time like a new Internet Historian upload.

  I love how Internet Historian is slowly morphing into just Historian

  Honestly can't tell if Historian genuinely became passionate about the theatre and wanted to share it with us or if he's just been too deep into Wikipedia again

  "But sir, we're supposed to do penis inspection day today." has to be the most juvenile thing to ever make me laugh aloud.

  If you think the Berlioz story is insane it goes even deeper. He was so obsessed with Harriet at one point that he used to stalk her, book hotel rooms next to her so he could spy on her. His first mental breakdown was when he found out she was having an affair with her manager. And the reason why she didn’t reply to his letters and why they eventually divorced is because he spoke French and she spoke English, they literally couldn’t understand each other the entire time. The only reason she acc agreed to marry him is because he poisoned himself infront of her, she then in shock said she’d marry him, then he whipped out the antidote from his pocket. The fucking OG gaslighter.<br>Also I’m a musician and I wish you would’ve talked about the 20th century cos there was some pretty crazy stuff that went on then but great vid!

  As an audio engineer with 2 decades experience in live theatre... this is 100% accurate.

  &quot;I&apos;d smash my tools if I could make the art as it is in my head&quot; is a sentiment i have seen in every artist i&apos;ve ever known regardless of medium

  I love the fact that these classical musicians were every bit as insane as 70s and 80s rockstars. If you said that the story about the devil coming to a musician in a dream or the dressing up like a maid murder suicide plot were something Ozzy Osborne did, no one would blink and eye.

  “Everyone told him to quit music, but he just wouldn’t hear it!”<br>My goodness, that’s perfect. Lol

  Harriet: I feel nothing for Berlioz. <br><b>everybody enjoys his performance</b><br>Harriet: People love him. I’m people. I love Berlioz.
