Embed from Getty Images Although I am curator of Classical recordings at the British Library, I have a fascination with the oldest extant examples of both sound recordings and photographs. Both are a window, albeit sometimes very misty, allowing us a view into the past. St George’s Day made me...

The famous speech from Henry V was recorded for the Gramophone Company by Waller on 4th August 1911 (when he also recorded the St Crispin’s Day speech from the same play and Tennyson’s 'Charge of the Light Brigade'). It can be heard on our British Library Sounds website here. However, when researching for this blog I was delighted to find that Waller had previously recorded the same speech over four and a half years earlier on 3rd January 1907. To hear a different performance of a recording I knew so well was thrilling. Although the sound quality is inferior to the later recording, Waller announces the extract and overall gives a faster reading – a delivery vastly more modern than that of Beerbohm Tree who can often sound ponderous and affected. He makes the same small cut in the text and a few word substitutions, but the main difference is that in the 1911 recording he gets the order of the first line mixed, saying ‘Once more unto the breach, once more, dear friends’ but on the 1907 recording quotes the first line correctly.

h5 was usually described as 'pious-looking' which is boring but we can pertty much safely fucking assume he had a huge badass arrow scar from the being shot in the face by the welsh

THANK YOU FOR THIS. Man, what was Branagh thinking not incorporating the Welsh Scar, I’m heartbroken.

-Listening to the comment of Tom Glynn-Carney who plays the role of Hotspur, I realized that I had made a mistake on this image of the trailer: I thought it was Joel Edgerton who was violently occipating a soldier in the battle....but no, it is our frail Timothy who is attacking the body of the poor Hotspur at the end of a duel ! At least I think so, if someone who saw the film in Venice can confirm.....

So I had a staging thought for Henry IV by you know Shakespeare, in that I think what would be fucking brilliant is in the scene where Henry V is coronated and repudiates Falstaff, rather than giving Henry V any audible lines to Falstaff, they should do like one of those mozart coronation songs that he wrote (he did they fuck unfairly hard its annoying) where any time Henry V opens his mouth to Falstaff one of those songs plays. Just go really hard about.

Monarchies are stupid but dramaticised versions of history shouldnbe fucked around with and made as inaccurate and tragic as possible, just for funsies.
