This was so dramatically satisfying that I couldn’t take my eyes off of her. What a brilliant performer.
Gone but not forgotten. Wonderful performances will be enjoyed and studied for years to come.
Beautfiul singing. Even more beautiful theatrical bravery, which is very rare. This is one of those performances which will go down in history.
Wow.. certainly a great talent in her past life and definitely in her next.. RIP.
I LOVE HER! She reminds me what being an opera singer is really all about! Can't get enough of this performance!
Amazing opera singer and amazing actress as well. Brilliant goddess that your flesh now rest in peace.🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
I'm thrilled and speachless each time when I watch this video... She is such an amazing artist!
Just read an interview with Brigitte Fassbänder in which she stated that Maria Ewing was, for her, the greatest Salome.
imagine having to sing this after dancing for 10 minutes!! unbelievable!
This is a truly amazing performance, especially accounting for having just performed the Dance of the Seven Veils. Beginning at 4:10 and for the next minute/minute and a half there’s a kind of frenzied response that is so mesmerizing it’s amazing. Her body movements and the look in her face is truly like watching her become more unhinged it’s absolutely sublime, and it becomes sort of beautiful as she talks about his beauty and ends the dialogue about how he is dead and can do what she seeks to his dead body. It’s so marvelous.
A wonderful opera and very well performed, particularly by maria Ewing. Strauss based it on Oscar Wilde's play "Salome", a masterpiece. Let's not forget Wilde, ever.
Ah, mas que esplendor que encontrei! Essa interpretação está marcada com fogo no meu coração: magistral!
Una maravillosa,genial,realista interpŕetacion con toda la carga dramatica La voz expresiva y llena de los matices adecuados Una gran artista y una extraordinaria Salomé.
RIP
You was a great actress and outstanding singer
I sang in this staging of Salome with Ms Ewing in 1996, at Michigan Opera Theater. She was indeed possessed in this role: intense, mesmerizing, vocally what one hears here, and always in character. It was an unforgettable experience.
What role did you sing Donald??
@@mjc5509 I sang Erster Soldat. Others in the cast: George Shirley, Mignon Dunn, Gregg Baker....
It was a blessing
How was Maria Ewing as a collegue?
I heard her sing Mozart's Requiem in 1978 and have never forgotten her voice. I am not fond of sopranos, but her voice was something special and I am glad that she made a name for herself.
Mezzo ventured into soprano land.. also jazz
Rest In Peace Maria!
FANTASTIC SINGER AND INTERPRETATION!
Great Maria Ewing
Magic music. Great Maestro Strauss! ♫♥
fantastica i'm still trying to get my hair to lie down!!she's beyond the beyond ,my favorite salome of all

Rip Marveleus Maria Ewing (1950-2022)
Wonderful Salomè
amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! I'm not yet familiar with this opera but this aria gave me chills.
As depraved nymphomaniacs go......Maria Ewing wins hands down in this role!!!...WOW!!!
On reflection, after 2 years, I think I meant "necro-nympho's!!"..........frighteningly depraved!!!!!..........No wonder Sir Peter Hall couldn't handle her!!!...What man could??!!..WOw!!
.ore nuanced than that
May she rest in peace.
Она бесподобна. Вечная память.
Next to the Immolation finale of Gotterdammerung, this is probably the most spectacular closing of any opera. Strauss and Wagner, two incredible geniuses, but here the performer makes the critical difference. It can be botched and usually in live performance a substitute does the 7-veil dance, obviously not necessary here. Maria Ewing isn't playing Salome, she IS Salome. It is impossible to look away, even for one second.
Depends on what you mean by "spectacular." Neither of the finales you mention can hold a candle to the finale from Le Nozze di Figaro.
@@TassiloDavid Opinion, opinion, opinion. Ours doesn't count for much, but I doubt too many would agree with your "not hold a candle" assesment. Comparing Mozart with Strauss and Wagner is like comparing a Mercedes to a Lambhorgini.
@@TassiloDavid , ma per carita'...c'e' tanto di meglio e piu' profondo. Gli amanti di Mozart vedono solo Mozart e pensano che il Melodramma mozartiano sia il massimo. Ci sono altri due secoli e mezzo di musica un tantino importante.
Wow! Grande interprete
Oscar for Ms Ewing!!!
Rest in Peace Maria.
She is phenomen
Fascinating, Maria. I love her,
RIP Maria Ewing.
enorme como siempre esta mujer!
I saw or heard nobody else coming closer to this state of crazyness and her articulating is fantastic ... no wonder with such a mouth
Ipnotizzato totalmente
Rip. Maria Ewing 2022.
Thrilling!!!!
I sometimes think THIS is the Maria everyone should be talking about.
I talk about them both, there's no competition.
@@onigbajamo agree. greatness is greatness.one can love them both.
Marvellous !!!!!!
R.I.P! 🙏🙏🙏💕
This woman is a Goddess!
Great Singer, Great Actress. My family and I love her so much !!!
While this role ultimately was not the healthiest "fach" for Maria Ewing, I can nevertheless separate technical critique from dramatic/artistic critique and I rate this performance to be one of the gold star standards for staged music. She (and perhaps whoever dramatically coached her) understood this role about as well as anyone could and every lyric had depth of meaning- the juxtaposition of innocence, lustful infatuation, and the madness that creeps in when people are allowed to have this much power over others. The result is a performance that is tragic, frighteningly twisted, beautiful, and even a bit comical/self-satirical.. all at once. One of the most richly layered roles ever conceived for the stage.
V. well-said.
Peter Hall was her husband for 8 years.
🕊♥️
RIP.

Where's the complete movie? I love this version and before they had available all the opera in RUclips... what's happened ?
They took it down, so they could sell it on Amazon,apparently.I like it because Michael Devlin is the Jokaanen.He was also the Giovanni in an incredible production in Santa Fe in1972,along with von Stade,Shirley,and Gramm.
The ROH production is available on DVD..hope you find a copy..
Is the full production somewhere in RUclips?!
By the way, where is Part 2? I saw the very end, but the continuation of this scene I cannot find :-(!
sublime violence ....................
Where is the other half of this scene
But when she first started her career she was a wonderful singer. I will tell you this, when she first sang Salome in Los Angeles in 1988 or 89 (I think that was the season), she was in her best form. We were all astounded...... But, we knew that she should not make a diet of this role.. She took it all over the place and by 1992 she was starting to trick her way through the role (the whooping and hollering). It was a shame because she was a very special singer in so many lyric mezzo roles.
The ROH COVENT GARDEN PRODUCTION WAS MAGICAL RIP
@darhug1968 Hear Hear!

Inmejorable
If only it wasn't sung in the awful German language.However Maria pronounced everything miraculously.
Her performance of the much more likable characters from the Mozart,Rossini en Berlioz opera's,it's hard to believe it's the same (mezzo) soprano.Baffling !
Off-pitch, arrhythmic howling. Dreadful.
Get real, this is not Mozart or Verdi, it is music drama, just as Strauss instructed. Salome is a crazed nymphomaniac and lyrical singiing is not called for. Picaso is not Rembrandt. Great art comes in a variety of form.
Off-pitch.... where exactly?
She was criticized highly for that
However it made her memorable.
Ya, ya, ya, so much whooping and hollering. Could she be less musical with all the screaming on pitch. Maria is a Lyric Mezzo Soprano and ruined her voice screaming and screeching through these roles for Soprano. She even looks like she is going to take a big dump in her drawers when she screams out the highest notes in this scene. She didn't do much singing after 1995 a mere four years after she started all of the Soprano nonsense. She is basically retired now with no voice left. Tisk-tisk-tisk
