Оперный клуб TheatreHD в Кинозале ГУМ. Саломея. Спецпоказ с Ириной Черномуровой
On March 11th at 7:00 PM, the TheatreHD Opera Club at the GUM Cinema Hall presents a screening of the passionate and visually stunning "Salome" from the Vienna State Opera. Richard Strauss's masterpiece, directed by French filmmaker Cyril Teste, is presented as the family saga of a powerful dynasty slowly tearing itself apart.
The screening will be introduced by Irina Chernomurova, a music and theatre historian, Honorary Professor at GITIS, and Honored Art Worker of the Russian Federation. We will discuss the unique aspects of this production and the history of "Salome" on various stages, including here at the Bolshoi Theatre.

Director Cyril Teste brings three distinct Salomes to the stage in this production, making the heroine’s energy and heartbeat palpable. The adult Salome, Malin Byström, channels the character’s profound horror through both voice and dramatic presence, while one of the "younger" versions—portrayed by the talented ballerina Anna Chisnova—delivers a stunning and unforgettable interpretation of the "Dance of the Seven Veils."
The Vienna State Opera, as always, offers a luxuriously rich sound and a vibrant explosion of color. Conductor Philippe Jordan leads a dynamic and nuanced performance of the score, navigating its shifting tonalities—from jarring percussion to delicate solos—laying bare all the contradictions and contrasts inherent in both the music and the story.
