Salome (1958) is a New York (Met) production and sound recording of Salome (1905 Strauss / Lachmann), opera, conducted by Dimitri Mitropoulos.
Abstract
Recording of a performance at the MET (8 February 1958).
"Fans of the fiery-voiced soprano Inge Borkh will want to explore her three live recordings from the '50s. Of these, a 1958 Met performance under Dimitri Mitropoulos makes the most vivid impression. There's also Borkh's famous recording of the final scene with Fritz Reiner's Chicago Symphony – a Living Stereo masterpiece with a magnificently disturbing bass organ note for Salome's ‘secret music’. "--Gramophone.
