EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the legendary German composer, Richard Strauss (1864-1949), as he conducts the world premiere of his groundbreaking opera, Salome, at the Semperoper in Dresden on December 9, 1905. The image, taken by the renowned photographer Fritz Gohrke, showcases Strauss in the midst of the orchestra, his intense focus and commanding presence evident as he leads the ensemble through the complex and provocative score. Salome, an adaptation of Oscar Wilde's play, was a daring and controversial work for its time, pushing the boundaries of morality and artistic expression. The opera's premiere was met with a mixture of shock and awe, and Strauss's innovative approach to music and storytelling cemented his reputation as one of the most influential figures in the world of classical music. This historic moment in operatic history is immortalized in this stunning photograph, a testament to the power of art and the enduring legacy of Richard Strauss.
