Tchaikovsky, composer of the world's most uplifting ballets, had crippling self-esteem issues.

'Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky is often coined as the first Russian composer to make a lasting impression internationally with his music.

His music is remembered for being joyful, energetic, and uplifting; but Tchaikovsky’s life didn’t always reflect his music. What many listeners aren’t aware of, is the composer’s long-term struggle with his mental health.'>>>

when we had one of his Symphonies come up for a concert, oh god all the angst in the world. Some of it really does sound tortured and angsty. I will forever love and miss playing Nutcracker though.
