6. Salome
Aired Oct 25, 201550 min
Based on the timeless play by Oscar Wilde, Richard Strauss wrote a troubling, uneasy score which portrays very clearly man's basic instincts. It is a story about obsession, about curiosity and about our desire for the prohibited. And the score expresses these topics perfectly: music which arouses strong emotions. Gener walks the viewer through how Salome makes one face his own fears and conscience.
