This is what opera is about..the drama ratcheted up 1000 fold by the music and the performance...Those who criticize Ewing's vocal quality...what the hell does it matter when the performance is as shattering as this...DIVA!!
Electrifing. She scares and marvels at the same time. The fact she is all sweat gives more realism. And Strauss was nothing less than a genius. Brilliant, brilliant 👏👏👏👏
Riveting. Vocal arguments aside, this ending should be horrifying, and here it is. Ewing manages to ride the music, conveying not only the unravelling mind, but the damaged child within and her confused sexuality. Both touching and terrifying, just as Strauss`s score demands. This was my first live experience of this opera and at a recent performance i felt something lacking. No wonder. btw watch from the beginning on the previous video!
A very different interpretation, traded in some musicality for drama, but I liked it. It's funny though her lips didn't even touch at 3:10 when she sings ich habe deinen MMMMund geküsst
Maria's performance of madness was hypnotizing!

fantasic a quand l opera complete???
Very good Sprichgesang
per Zufall hier entdeckt. Oscarreif gespielt und sehr gut gesungen. Man verzeihe ihr die beiden Patzer zum Schluß.
Ich höre keine Patzer
goosebumps everytime
Мария незабываема в партии- роли Керубино в фильме « Свадьба Фигаро».
Chills.
Rip.
C'est injuste! RIP Maria 😞
SImply hypnotic!
(her first phrases... pure erotic ecstasy)
Coitada da Maria Ewing dançando até ficar nua para este Herodes babando...
Shattering!

I think it depends on what you define musicality is. For me drama and musicality go hand in hand~
from the Caballé school of consonant evasion!
It fits the style. This is not bell canto. This is german post-romantic dramtic opera
Could you be more realistic with your observations??? She avoided that consonant once but the other words are crystal clear.
E' un' interpretazione eccelsa ma sbagliata... Salome era un'adolescente.....
