Certain scenes contain content that some viewers may find objectionable.

The first performance of Richard Strauss's Salome, which took place in 1905 in Dresden, was a thunderous triumph despite the many difficulties involved in bringing the work to the stage. The provocative lyric drama, based on the play by Oscar Wilde, met with 38 curtain calls by the enraptured audience, firmly establishing Strauss's genius as an operatic composer and innovator.

In this intense, defiantly modern masterpiece, the orchestra brings out all the vivid and mordant colors in Strauss's score, and the title role is an staggering tour de force of expressivity. Conductor Simone Young brings Strauss's music to life in this new production by the Paris Opera, staged by Lydia Steier with an extraordinary cast centered around star soprano Elza van den Heever in the role of Salome.

Salome Strauss,R

The Princess of Judea, Salome, is bored at the palace of her father-in-law, King Herod. Her curiosity awakes when she hears the voice of Jochanaan, a prophet held prisoner by Herod who is afraid of him. Obsessed with this enigmatic and virtuous man, Salomé is ready to do anything to possess him, alive or dead. Based on the scandalous play of the same name by Oscar Wilde, Richard Strauss delivers, in 1905, the work which was to confirm his place as successor to Richard Wagner in German opera. "Dance for me, Salome". From this lustful injunction of Herod to the young girl stems one of the most emblematic orchestral pages in the history of opera: the dance of the seven veils. A hypnotic interlude which alone could sum up the deadly ascent of desire that runs through this score with an orchestration as rich as it is modern.

Salome

La princesse de Judée, Salomé, s’ennuie au palais de son beau‑père, le roi Hérode. Sa curiosité s’éveille lorsqu’elle entend la voix de Jochanaan, prophète tenu prisonnier par Hérode qui en a peur. Obsédée par cet homme énigmatique et vertueux, Salomé est prête à tout pour le posséder, vivant ou mort. D’après la scandaleuse pièce homonyme d’Oscar Wilde, Richard Strauss livre, en 1905, l’œuvre qui devait confirmer sa place de successeur de Richard Wagner dans l’opéra allemand. « Danse pour moi, Salomé ». De cette injonction lubrique d’Hérode à la jeune fille découle l’une des plus emblématiques pages orchestrales de l’histoire de l’opéra : la danse des sept voiles. Un intermède hypnotique qui pourrait à lui seul résumer la mortelle ascension du désir qui parcourt cette partition à l’orchestration aussi riche que moderne. Une fulgurance d’une heure quarante où la metteuse en scène Lydia Steier convoque, pour ses débuts à l’Opéra national de Paris, l’essence décadente de l’œuvre.
