Richard Strauss - "Ah! Ich habe deinen Mund geküsst, Jochanaan" from Salome (Audio + Score)

[@paulstrickler5684]

I’m overwhelmed that Strauss scored Salome's final apotheosis in the outrageous key of C# major! D-flat major would’ve been all wrong.

The twisted chord at 3:49 is one of Strauss's most ingenious moments. Thanks for posting with the score!

It represents Solome’s demented ecstatic triumph that collapses in on itself. A wonderful masterstroke!

Having Strauss… music to my ears

[@Dylonely_9274]

Such a great finale.

Triumphant tonic resolution in C# [3:40]
Cacophonous twist: FGAA#C [3:50] (stressed with a crescendo from 3:46 in this rendition)
C# => c [4:14]
