As much as a moody almost maddening music would be nice for the bacchanal scene, it would kind of be hilarious to have a beautiful enchanting music to show how thrilled and in a dreamlike state the Greek class was during the bacchanal just to reveal the horrifying body of the farmer at the last note, bringing us back in reality with the characters.

I’m thinking of La Barcarolle from Offenbach because it’s just so enchanting and yet the lyrics just fit the scene : “Belle nuit, ô nuit d’amour Souris à nos ivresses” aka “Beautiful night, o night of love smile upon our excesses” (ivresse meaning both intoxication (being drunk) and an exalted state of joy which both fit the bacchanal scene)

The Tales of Hoffmann fan poster! ♪

Hu-u-ugely inspired by Geneva 2008 recording, which is my favourite version of it! (Its idea with Olympia`s design makes sense to me as "a pretty body with no character to it". But I didnt want to copy everything)

Since I`ve recognised a lot more words rewatching it, my French has improved a little :D

「ホフマン物語」ファンポスター！♪

ジュネーヴ 2008の録音は一番の憧れ

このオペラ度観ながらもっと言葉を認識したから、僕のフランス語上達しましたと思います:D

Казки Гофмана, фан плакат ♪

Головне натхнення - запис у Женеві 2008, моя улюблена версія

Здається моя французька стала кращою, переглядаючи я розпізнав більше слів :D

Une fan affiche du Les Contes d`Hoffmann! ♪

Ce dessin est inspiré par le Genève 2008 enregistrement, c’est ma version préférée
