Description:
Inge Borkh proves once again why she dominated the role of Salome throughout the 1950s. Her performance combines cinematic glamour with a voice of unwavering strength and expressive detail. Max Lorenz brings unexpected dimension to Herod, steering the character away from grotesque caricature and toward something more disturbingly human. Ferdinand Frantz delivers a riveting Jochanaan, his baritone blazing with prophetic fire yet tinged with dark allure. A young Christa Ludwig also makes a notable appearance as the Page, adding further interest to an already remarkable cast.
