Salome: Opera Australia Sydney
About the Event
In the words of the opera's protagonist: 'The mystery of love is greater than the mystery of death.' Salome's eroticism and sensuality drives Herod into a madness that causes him to demand the head of St. John Baptist.
The opera contains moments of such smothering sensuality that it has been described as symphonic lust. Experience it at the beautiful and world‐renowned Opera Australia Sydney.
