Met Music Director Yannick Ne? zet-Se? guin takes the podium on May 17 to conduct Strauss?s
one-act tragedy, which will be broadcast live from the Metropolitan Opera stage to cinemas
worldwide. Leading the company?s first new production of the work in 20 years, Claus Guth, one
of Europe?s leading opera directors, gives the biblical story a psychologically perceptive
Victorian-era setting. South African soprano Elza van den Heever leads a celebrated cast as the
abused and unhinged antiheroine, with Swedish baritone Peter Mattei as the imprisoned prophet
Jochanaan; German tenor Gerhard Siegel as Salome?s lecherous stepfather, King Herod;
American mezzo-soprano Michelle DeYoung as his wife, Herodias; and Polish tenor Piotr
Buszewski as Narraboth.
