Dear John,
Are you familiar with the setting of SALOME in French that Richard Strauss composed after his first effort? Apparently it contains much more of Oscar’s original text. I don’t know it; hope it’s available for purchase.
Cheers, John Q. ________________________________

Hi JQ: I’m not familiar with it myself but The Wildean No. 52 (January 2018) covered it in article by James Morwood entitled “Richard Strauss’s Salome and Oscar Wilde’s French Text”. The French text I believe was by Romain Rolland search for him.
