Approved

Herodes begeert zijn stiefdochter Salome en wil haar per se zien dansen. Salome verlangt vurig om de mond te kussen van de gevangen Johannes de Doper – een onheilsprofeet die zich verliest in hate speech. In Strauss’ ‘schandaalopera’, naar het theaterstuk van enfant terrible Oscar Wilde, jagen alle protagonisten op extreme wijze hun egoproject na. Regisseur Ersan Mondtag, die eerder bij Opera Ballet Vlaanderen tekende voor flamboyante producties van Der Schmied von Gent (Schreker) en Der Silbersee (Weill), focust op de politieke thriller in Strauss’ adembenemende werk. Hij ziet parallellen tussen de historische Herodes, vazal van het Romeinse Rijk, en hedendaagse dictators zoals de Wit-Russische president Aleksandr Loekasjenko. Voor de handhaving van hun bewind zijn ze totaal afhankelijk van een hogere macht. Revolutionaire krachten zinnen echter op een totale vernieling van Herodes’ decadente rijk… Met muziekdirecteur Alejo Pérez aan het roer van het Symfonisch Orkest belooft de nieuwe Salome ook muzikaal hoge toppen te scheren.

Nederlands

Herod lusts after his stepdaughter Salome and insists on seeing her dance. Salome longs to kiss the mouth of the imprisoned John the Baptist – a prophet of doom who loses himself in hate speech. In Strauss’ ‘scandal opera’, based on the play by enfant terrible Oscar Wilde, all the protagonists pursue the fulfilment of their own ego. Director Ersan Mondtag, who previously created flamboyant productions at Opera Ballet Vlaanderen such as Der Schmied von Gent (Schreker) and Der Silbersee (Weill), focuses on the political thriller in Strauss’ breathtaking work. He sees parallels between the historical Herod, vassal of the Roman Empire, and contemporary dictators such as Belarusian president Aleksandr Lukashenko. They are completely dependent on a higher power to maintain their rule. However, revolutionary forces are intent on a total destruction of Herod’s decaden empire… With music director Alejo Pérez at the helm of the Symphony Orchestra, the new Salome also promises to reach musical heights.
