Richard Strauss’s opera Salome at the Salzburg Festival—staged at the Felsenreitschule by none other than Romeo Castellucci—was nothing short of a sensation in the past opera season! Asmik Grigorian made her debut in the title role and, with her captivating singing and acting, catapulted herself straight into the small international elite of sopranos with this remarkable performance. Quite rightly, this truly exceptional singer subsequently received the International Opera Award for Best Singer. Experiencing Maestro Franz Welser-Möst performing with the Vienna Philharmonic—and with such an outstanding cast—“makes you believe you are hearing the piece in its most perfect incarnation yet” (Financial Times). “Asmik Grigorian sweeps everything else off the stage in the title role of this Strauss opera. […] She is a Salome to end all Salomes. […] Utterly breathtaking overall…” (Financial Times).
