Description
Mel Bonis’ portrayal of the biblical figure Salomé has a strongly oriental character. The introduction and finale, whose slow five-beat rhythm is accentuated by the basses, are evocative of a caravan in the distance. The entire piece thrives on the alternation of atmosphere: slow syncopations are followed by light-footed glissandi; haunting and mysterious psalmodies accompany sensual passages; surprising changes in tempo make passion and destruction determine the musical form.
