Why do all these opera scene clips cut off as soon as the applause begins? Seeing the audience reception is an intrinsic part of the performance to any true opera lover!
great singer ..beautiful incredible music:-)))))) unbelievable, that this music was composed over 100 years ago :-)))) forget all the modern composers today or from the past 60 years....bravo Richard Strauss ...!!!!! thanks for posting
Sublimes moments, mais, pour ce XXIe, quelques longueurs, répétitions (de passages antérieurs) qui n’ajoutent guère. Superbe inspiration musicale du « je n’entends rien », du début de cet extrait; admirable « pourquoi tu ne me regardes pas » (alors que tous les autres me regardent, et me désirent) mais aussi, que dire du dénouement de ce conscient dilemme cornélien, « qu’importe que m’importe » que je sois damnée par le jugement des autres, je viens de t’embrasser, toi qui s’était refusé à mois, je viens d’embrasser ta bouche, (tête décapitée de) Jean ( Baptiste), 15:16, ... quoique la prise de son y est vachement médiocre ici (en comparaison avec l’enregistrement de Karl Bohm, où ce même passage est rendu par Thérèsa Stratas...comparez, ça en vaut l’écoute) et en réduit considérablement l'impact dramatique. Navrant, aurait pu, dû, être inspirant, mais la technique d'enregistrement manque totalement de grandeur, à la fin.

…..who you never saw onstage! You’re just familiar with her Solti/Culshaw recording. Yes, I saw Nilsson sing this final scene in a concert, and I was in the theater. She was great. But I’ve also seen Jones, Behrens, and several other singers perform this role in the theater, and they were just as good as Nilsson. There’s a lot more to Salome than just blasting high notes.
Was ist denn das für eine Sängerin?? Klingt wie wine 90 jährige, und kann kein Deutsch. Haben wir so wenig gute deutsche Sängerinnen, dass man immer solche Leute engangieren muss?

Surely, one of the most chilling scenes in all of opera.
My favorite scene in all of opera!
Deborah was still in fabulous voice in this selection. She may be at the end of her opera career, but she leaves a 25 year legacy of great singing.
I have seen Deborah in several Strauss operas.This performance is a very good example of her magical voice
@@mjc5509 Her Strauss & Wagner roles are top-notch!

Hello
A fine performance. But no one will ever come close to the phenomenal Birgit Nilsson!
…..who you never saw onstage! You’re just familiar with her Solti/Culshaw recording. Yes, I saw Nilsson sing this final scene in a concert, and I was in the theater. She was great.

@wotan10950 , so true!! I prefer the more lyric voices actually: Welitsch, Cebotari and Ewing come to mind.

Die größten deutschen Dirigenten wie Thielleman freuten sich, sie zu singen.
