		Alexandra installed as high priest her eldest son, Hyrcanus II.—a man wholly after the heart of the Pharisees—and the Sanhedrin was reorganized according to their wishes.

	AZOpera Salome Synopsis
		The legend of "Salome" derives from a sparse Biblical account of the decadent stepdaughter of Herod, Tetrach of Judea, and her shocking insistence upon the beheading of St. John the Baptist.
		Salome provides the sensuous, decadent performance Herod has requested, then throws herself at his feet, sweetly and solemnly demanding her payment: the head of John the Baptist on a silver platter.
		In the original Gospel story, Salome was depicted very briefly as an amoral adolescent who demands the Prophet's head on a charger, essentially to fulfill a request of her affronted and vengeful mother.

		The music of Salome," then, judging it in its entirety, is deficient as an exposition, as a translation into tone, of the drama upon which it is based; for it is inadequate in its expression of the play's central and informing emotion.
		One quarrels with the music of the final scene of Salome " on the broad ground of its inappropriateness: because the emotional note which it strikes and sustains is one of nobility, whereas the plain requirement of the scene, of the psychological moment, demands music that should be anything but noble.
