Description
New production.
"Herod's stepdaughter, the sultry Salome falls in love with a fascinating prisoner: the prophet Jochanaan (John the Baptist). A troubled desire leads her to demand his head. Inspired by Oscar Wilde, this masterpiece of subversion brilliantly weaves together Eros and Thanatos, Orientalism and modernity. Baritone Matthias Goerne signs his first production. Around the debut, in the title role, of Marie-Adeline Henry (an unforgettable Jenůfa), a prestigious cast is conducted by Frank Beermann, an eminent Straussian. After Ariadne auf Naxos, Elektra, and Die Wässung (The Woman Without a Shadow), the Opéra national du Capitole, supported by an Orchestra unrivaled in this music, continues to work in France to promote the all-too-rare presence of Strauss in the repertoire."
