Here is the world premire performance of the Trio (No. 8) in Offenbach's definitive version, deleted from the score after Offenbach died by the director of the first performance of the opera at the Opéra-Comique.
In the traditional version of "Les contes d'Hoffmann" this wonderful trio, in which Hoffmann purchases the magic eye glasses from Copélius for three ducats and is further enchanted by Olympia believing she is a living breathing angel from heaven, this ensemble was also cut completely. It was replaced by a corrupt version of Dapertutto's "Tourne, tourne miroir" transformed into an aria for Coppélius.
The Oeser edition of this trio stems from the phase of composition when Offenbach was conceiving the role of Hoffmann for a baritone. Oeser's reconstruction of the trio was only based on incomplete copists' piano-vocal scores in a lower tonality than Offenbach ultimately chose for this piece. The postlude of Oeser's edition of the trio was devised by Oeser himself, as was the entire orchestration for this number in the Oeser edtion.
Oeser did not have access to the authentic manuscripts that form the basis of the integral edition of the opera by Michael Kaye (now a co-edition of the opera with Jean-Christophe Keck published Schott Music in collaboration with Boosey and Hawkes and Bote&Bock).
