In this new version of Les contes d’Hoffmann by Jacques Offenbach, Nicklausse, the muse and alter ego of Hoffmann, sings at the end of the opera: “On est grand par l’amour, mais plus grand par les pleurs” (Love makes us great, but weeping makes us greater still). This is a motif by who was considered “the ever-entertaining Offenbach”, however the composer’s artistic concept is linked to the Romantic movement from Victor Hugo via Berlioz to Thomas Mann, where art and inspiration develop from the suffering and melancholy of human life. This makes Offenbach’s only full-length opera a unique creation where art triumphs over the pain of love.
