The Edinburgh International Festival chats to celebrated Swedish soprano Malin Byström as she takes on the title role in Richard Strauss's Salome, discussing her interpretation of complex characters on stage and finding confidence in herself and her performance.

Salome is one of the most thrilling, chilling works in the operatic repertoire. It paints a darkly fascinating picture of King Herod’s court, where his stepdaughter Salome demands a prophet’s death in return for satisfying his lascivious desires.

Watch Byström perform with conductor Edward Gardner and the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra in Edinburgh on Sun 14 Aug. Book tickets here: [ Ссылка ]
