it's weird to me that Phantom of the Opera was put together in the 80s (www.youtube.com)

It's such a cornerstone of theater, the music is so damn good. Somehow I expected it to be from like the 1800s

Toccata and Fugue in D minor is an old song that this is a cover of, so I guess there's that. I think it also seems old because "Phantom of the Opera" is such an old timey sounding name. I guess if it's based on an old book, maybe they were referencing stuff that was even earlier...
