Salomé by Strauss, sam. 19 oct. 2024, Du (2024/2024), Dirigé par Kirill Serebrennikov,, Chef d'orchestre Tomáš Hanus, Opernhaus, Stuttgart, Allemagne

By the middle of the 19th Century, the figure of Salome, a woman who enforced her erotic desires by using lethal violence, had developed into both – incarnation of female ferocity and symbol for pure eroticism – in short to the most important Christian-mythological female figure within the world of music and literature. It resembles an ecstatic dance on the verge of a precipice which finally evolved into a symbol of decadence: Until today, the opera has not lost any of its equally fascinating and disturbing power.
