Salome

After Salome’s world premiere in 1905, Richard Strauss became an opera composer whose name was on everyone’s lips. In his electrifying revision, the masterful director Christof Loy now presents the classic work from a fresh perspective. This one-act opera captivates its audience with its unexpected elements and profound insights.
