Salome (1992) is a London production and video recording of Salome (1905 Strauss), opera, with Edward Downes (conductor) and Derek Bailey (director).
Abstract
The Dance of the Seven Veils, choreographed by Elizabeth Keen, was performed by the soprano Maria Ewing, with outstanding results.
"Peter Hall’s magnificent 1992 production of Strauss’s opera Salome features sensational acting from Maria Ewing who, as the sinister, monstrous heroine of the title, ultimately leaves nothing to the imagination in her Dance of the Seven Veils. She leads a fine cast including Michael Devlin as a strongvoiced Jokanaan, Kenneth Riegel as a devilish Herod, Gillian Knight as the depraved Herodias and Robin Leggate as the infatuated Narraboth. The Orchestra of the Royal Opera House, in excellent form, is conducted by Edward Downes. Contains nudity and scenes of violence."--Presto Classical
