Luc Arbogast -Cantus Sibilinus

La princesse de Judée, Salomé, s’ennuie au palais de son beau‑père, le roi Hérode. Sa curiosité s’éveille lorsqu’elle entend la voix de Jochanaan, prophète tenu prisonnier par Hérode qui en a peur. Obsédée par cet homme énigmatique et vertueux, Salomé est prête à tout pour le posséder, vivant ou mort. D’après la scandaleuse pièce homonyme d’Oscar Wilde, Richard Strauss livre, en 1905, l’œuvre qui devait confirmer sa place de successeur de Richard Wagner dans l’opéra allemand. « Danse pour moi, Salomé ». De cette injonction lubrique d’Hérode à la jeune fille découle l’une des plus emblématiques pages orchestrales de l’histoire de l’opéra : la danse des sept voiles. Un intermède hypnotique qui pourrait à lui seul résumer la mortelle ascension du désir qui parcourt cette partition à l’orchestration aussi riche que moderne. Une fulgurance d’une heure quarante où la metteuse en scène Lydia Steier convoque, pour ses débuts à l’Opéra national de Paris, l’essence décadente de l’œuvre.

I recorded this just for fun about a year ago (mid 2014). That's me playing all the instruments and doing all the vocals. The nylon string guitar and jazz bass are recorded direct. Drums and percussion were played using the Garritan Jazz and Big Band library.

Bet you didn't know I was a DeadHead!
