The Tales of Hoffmann 2021

OFFENBACH: The Tales of Hoffmann | Conductor Carlo Montanaro | Director Damiano Michieletto

Experience the fanciful world and musical brilliance of Offenbach’s magnum opus - The Tales of Hoffmann. Premiering at the Sydney Opera House, this brand-new co-production with Royal Opera House, Covent Garden is a jewel of French Romanticism. Homegrown soprano Jessica Pratt returns to Australia to play all four of Hoffmann’s leading ladies - a demanding feat few sopranos in the world today have achieved.

Jessica is joined by Belgian tenor Jean-François Borras who plays the titular role of Hoffmann and Croatian bass-baritone Marko Mimica who sings the four villains. Supported by a cast of OA principal singers including Sian Sharp, Jennifer Black, John Longmuir, Gennadi Dubinsky and Shanul Sharma.
