When he was four and she was eight, Mozart and Marie Antoinette met under a table. Mozart said: "I love you," to the eight-year-old archduchess. Marie Antoinette took the boy into her arms and kissed him. Little did either of them know that this would be the last time they met. Just six years later, the archduchess moved to France to become its Queen, while Mozart spent his teenage and adult years in Salzburg, watching another up-and-coming composer, Ludwig Van Beethoven, perform his first symphony in 1786.
He's riffing on Mel Brooks. Mel has long ago done his bit on American vs British newscasters: (British) "Today in the Gulf of Akhabar, two ships nearly collided". (American) "Two wacky Arab ships today almost hit each other HEAD-ON! Unfortunately nobody was huyt". (from An Audience With Mel Brooks(1983)). ❤ to Mel and ❤ Larry as Bob Hale!

Both Mozart and Salieri taught Beethoven how to write piano concerti. Unlike Mozart, Beethoven wrote only nine symphonies and five piano concerti. Mozart wrote 45 symphonies and more than 20 piano concerti. Mozart and Beethoven had the relationship of teacher and student, but the latter only started to go deaf after Mozart died. He began going deaf when he wrote his third symphony, Eroica, and by the time he wrote his ninth symphony, Beethoven was completely deaf.
@@Atlas226 mine too, wonder what it would be like for that to happen with the earliest American presidents. Have them do that verbal jousting would be like
Why were none of the kids like dying. 1. They were in the HH prom you would think they are like gdptzlgzkltotsott 2. They were in the same freaking building as Mathew Baynton!! Mat Baynton.
I thought I thought that when Victoria locked up herself in the toilet Prince Albert will come, talk to her and they'll sing "Victoria and Albert love song" ;-; WHY R U SO HEARTLESS
A fun extra detail about Lully's death I found on Wikipedia: Apparently he could've had the leg amputated to treat the gangrene, but he refused, because it'd mean he couldn't dance anymore.
10 years later, I'm sat on the sofa, should probably be paying more attention to my physics lesson, and geeking out over all of the content in this. Especially the main theme and Bob Hale!
Best Show Ever! Loved how they didn't just show the play but used other characters in the side bits. Poor Queen Vicky, She ruled for 64 years you know? Only wish it was 2 hours and Sarah Hadland was there.
This is so great. Horrible Histories has so much passion and seeing them all the characters interact like this is great. One of the best shows ever. Watched so much of it

I swear that bob hale is a better news reporter than most regular news reporters. I also think that people would watch the news much more if bob hale was reporting it.

Been ages since I watched the whole thing in one go. The music choices were great, the orchestrations of the HH songs was fab too. Plus getting a scene between Mozart and Beethoven is something I think we all wanted.

In 1804, when Beethoven wrote his Third Symphony, he did not entirely hear the news that Napoleon had declared himself Emperor of the French. However, he did hear the words: "Napoleon" and "Emperor," and flying into a rage when hearing how his hero had turned into a villian, he renamed his Third Symphony Eroica instead of Napoleonica, which was the original name. That is why the second movement of this symphony is called "The Funeral of the Hero," because the spirit of the hero in Napoleon had died, in Beethoven's eyes. He began going deaf shortly after he wrote his Third Symphony. Twenty years later, he wrote the Ninth Symphony, by which point he was completely deaf. He had created the Romantic Era, and the reason he wrote only nine symphonies instead of 46, like Mozart, was because he was deaf. Mozart was far more prolific than Beethoven, and because he served in the court of the Austrian Empress Maria Theresa, he was required to write more symphonies (even though his father infamously passed them off as his own). Mozart met Marie Antoinette when he was four and she was eight. When he himself turned eight, he performed for George III, and at ten, he performed for Louis XV. Beethoven was not so much as a Kapellmeister, but since Haydn, Mozart, and all Salieri taught him, it is no wonder he became a titan in his own right, despite being deaf.
Literally listened to this song wondering why it was so familiar and invoking such feelings of sadness when the realisation hit me like a bolt of lightning
I was always dreaming of a live Horrible Histories show that toured around the world just based on what of this show I can find, and now I'm so glad this exists!
Ha! I really enjoyed this show. Reminds me of when my grandparents used to take me to the proms when I was younger, but this injects history into music, fantastic!
A few things are different in comparison to the show. George II instead of talking about his father dying of diarrhoea says he did. And Richard III said he didn’t kill his dad instead of his wife’s dad. Simon Farnaby also plays George III in George IV’s song instead of Lawry Lewin.
I just realized that George IV being so late in the prom was a huge joke about how he waited to become king until he was nearly 60 years old.
King Charles 3 had to wait to 73
Look at Charles tho lol

Makes sense I suppose
Omg imagine if they actually had Matt perform the Dick Turpin song.. people would have fainted.
thats probably why he didnt perform it lmao, dont think making the majority of the crowd faint would be a good idea

Horrible histories is a great and innovative way of educating the public on historical events and figures, something we need more of these days.
It makes it more interesting. I watched a video on the children of George III and the HH George III special made it less boring.
Okay sure the lip bite is great. But Jim saying 'Hi' and 'excuse me' softly while singing richard 3rd just melts my heart.
Why don't we have this quality television in America.
