The dancer performed in the best way, with smooth and seductive movements at the same time, bravo

Malin Byström was 44 when she did this dance, and she looks much younger there.

[allenhuug]

She's the best dancer among all sopranos, the best soprano among all dancers

I love this interpretation. It’s very uncomfortable to watch; a bit like watching seduction! A lot of people are disappointed in no physical veils being dropped, but I can see her dropping her virtues one by one, and supposedly there are seven of those.

Heartfelt, intense, naked, pure and trure!

[jensstergaard]

No words needed...only " The Beat of your Heart "

According to the biblical mythology, she is supposed to finish naked.

Finally a singer who looks good as Salome AND can dance. Unfortunately, the choreography is quite boring and not very inspired or creative, but that´s not the fault of the singer. Also the lighting is boring too in my opinion. Always the same light. I don´t like the choreography and the staging, but I still give this video a thumb up because she is a great Salome.

Beautiful and so lovely to see great performance😂😂😂😂😂😂.

Ik weet wel dat de opera zich baseert in de Bijbel en dat het in die stijl zich moet afspelen. Maar het is een beetje gemoderniseerd zie ik, dat is wel het leukste ervan. Hoe het hedendaagse eruit ziet.

Reminds me of The 3 Stooges episode where Curley Joe dancez disguised as an Arabian temptress...KINDA.

EROTISMO. Si hay o no velos de verdad no importa. Esto está impregnado de sensualidad y lascivia. Estremecedor.

[quequitoAR]

Some narrow minded people here... My only complaints are about the incomplete scene. Wish we could see the frenetic end of the dance...

[titash]

Alas! This is no 'dance of the 28 veils'. Nevertheless, I don't regret it.

[outsidein]

Help me out, was i wrong to think there might be some vieils?
