Richard Strauss - musical drama in one lift - music and libretto by Richard Strauss!

When "Salomé" by Oscar Wilde first appeared on stage in Paris in 1896, the author served a prison sentence in London for "gross immorality". In Great Britain and also in the German-speaking countries only private performances of the scandalous play were possible. Such one Richard Strauss visited in 1902 in Max Reinhardt's "Kleinem Theater" in Berlin.

One year later he decided to make Wildes Text the basis of an opera nude. The premiere of SALOME 1905 in Dresden was a resounding success for the composer. In it he challenges the genre: an intoxicating and love-drenched music contrasts the most horrible, monstrous event imaginable.

Info: Deutsche Oper Berlin

On November 7, 1912, the Deutsches Opernhaus was inaugurated with FIDELIO and, in the following decades, served as a stage especially for Puccini's and Wagner's works. The house has remained faithful to the democratic ideal of a citizen opera after its destruction in World War II: Fritz Bornemann's new building, opened in 1961, is intended as a framework for a modern music theatre, which can be experienced from all seats as a total work of art.

Smooth buying of tickets with friendly staff. Grandiose places and a wonderful bizarre performance (Salome)!
What I didn't know until then: On the day of the performance there must be a valid get2card. Not (only) on the day of purchase.
(I had a sample get2card for 3 months at the first attempt to buy the cards.)

Reibungsloses Kaufen der Tickets bei freundlichem Personal. Grandiose Plätze und eine wunderbar bizarre Vorstellung (Salome)!
Was ich bis dahin nicht wusste: Am Tag der Vorstellung muss es eine gültige get2card geben. Nicht (nur) am Tag des Kaufes.
(Ich hatte eine Probe get2card für 3 Monate beim ersten Versuch die Karten zu kaufen.)
