Music drama by Richard Strauss. Text based on Oscar Wilde's drama of the same name in the German translation by Hedwig Lachmann, abridged by the composer Premiere on February 12, 2022 Musical direction: Lukas Beikircher Director: KS Angela Denoke Equipment: Ocarina Peter, Timo Dentler Choreography: Martine Reyn Dramaturgy: Susanne Bieler ==== =================== CONTENT ======================= Many critical voices found Richard scandalous Strauss' music drama Salome. Given the bloodthirsty ending, that's hardly surprising. Salome is fascinated by the prophet Jochanaan, who is being held captive by her stepfather, King Herod. She wants to touch him, kiss him, but is repeatedly rejected by Jochanaan and finally cursed by him. This triggers perfidious thoughts of revenge in Salome. Herod's request She only manages to dance for him when he promises to fulfill her every wish. What she commands after her seductive "Dance of the Seven Veils" lets Herod freeze: "Give me the head of Jochanaan." material has a strong appeal to the audience. The fact that the work conquered all the major stages in Germany and abroad soon after its premiere in Dresden in 1905 is mainly due to the brilliant composition. Strauss, the musical dramatist, drives the action forward in breathless suspense with tonal sophistication and an expressivity heightened by sharp dissonances and draws haunting character images. She herself interpreted the role of Salome, which was as challenging in terms of acting as she was singing, on several occasions. Now she is directing Strauss's masterpiece for the first time: the internationally sought-after soprano KS Angela Denoke. ======================= CAST ======================= HEROD .. .Florian Stern HERODIAS ...

Many critical voices found Richard Strauss' music drama Salome scandalous . Given the bloodthirsty ending, that's hardly surprising. Salome is fascinated by the prophet Jochanaan, who is being held captive by her stepfather, King Herod.

Despite moral concerns, which led to the 1892 ban of the planned London premiere of Oscar Wilde's one-act play, Strauss's operatic version of the story held a strong appeal for audiences. The fact that the work conquered all the major stages in Germany and abroad soon after its premiere in Dresden in 1905 is mainly due to the brilliant composition. Strauss, the musical dramatist, drives the action forward in breathless suspense with tonal sophistication and an expressivity heightened by sharp dissonances and draws haunting character images.

If you had looked at me,
you would have loved me.

Salomé

English

Als skandalös empfanden viele kritische Stimmen Richard Strauss’ Musikdrama Salome. Angesichts des blutrünstigen Endes ist das wenig verwunderlich. Salome ist fasziniert vom Propheten Jochanaan, der von ihrem Stiefvater, König Herodes, gefangen gehalten wird. Sie möchte ihn berühren, ihn küssen, wird jedoch mehrfach von Jochanaan zurückgewiesen und schließlich von ihm verflucht. Das löst bei Salome perfide Rachegedanken aus. Herodes’ Aufforderung, für ihn zu tanzen, kommt sie erst nach, als dieser ihr verspricht, ihr jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Was sie nach ihrem verführerischen „Tanz der sieben Schleier“ befiehlt, lässt Herodes erstarren: „Gib mir den Kopf des Jochanaan.“

Trotz moralischer Bedenken, die schon zum Verbot der geplanten Londoner Uraufführung von Oscar Wildes Einakter 1892 führten, übte Strauss’ Opernversion des Stoffes eine starke Anziehungskraft auf das Publikum aus. Dass das Werk schon bald nach der Uraufführung 1905 in Dresden alle großen Bühnen im In- und Ausland eroberte, ist vor allem der brillanten Komposition geschuldet. Mit tonmalerischer Raffinesse und einer durch scharfe Dissonanzen gesteigerten Expressivität treibt der Musikdramatiker Strauss die Handlung in atemloser Spannung voran und zeichnet eindringliche Charakterbilder.

Mehrfach interpretierte sie selbst die ebenso darstellerisch wie gesanglich herausfordernde Partie der Salome. Nun führt sie erstmals bei Strauss’ Meisterwerk Regie: die international gefragte Sopranistin KS Angela Denoke.

Warum sahst du mich nicht an?
Hättest du mich angesehn,
du hättest mich geliebt.
