Description

Jacques Offenbach's Les Contes d'Hoffmann, op?ra fantastique, is an unfinished work. When Felsenstein decided to produce Hoffmann, there was little source material to go on. However, not even he could have guessed that preparatory work on that opera would take over a year. He asked the Biblioth?que Nationale in Paris to prepare copies of the original piano score of the first performance, the libretto from the first performance by Jules Barbier (Calmann-L?vy ?diteurs) and the five-act play of the same name, a drame fantastique, by Jules Barbier and Michel Carr?. Using this material as a starting point, Felsenstein created his own German five-act version based on the five-act play - the work he considered closest to Offenbach's intentions.
