The Tales of Hoffmann
Jacques Offenbach
Longwood Opera exclusive edition!

Fully costumed, staged, and in English, with piano accompaniment
Music Director: Jeffrey Brody
Asstant Music Director: Wayne Ward
Director: J. Scott Brumit

No printed edition of The Tales of Hoffmann reflects Offenbach's desires or intentions for this sprawling, tuneful, dramatic and comic masterpiece. The composer died before his final work was ever performed.

Longwood Opera has investigated all published editions, as well as many related materials, and has created a unique version of this opera. While some of the music will be very familiar, there are passages that may have never been heard elsewhere in English. In 1984, when Longwood Opera first presented this edition, critics acclaimed this as the "definitive production that will be the benchmark for all future Hoffmanns."

Adults - $20.00 Students - $12.00
Seniors - $15.00 Children 10 and under - $10.00
