Sherlock Holmes (radio play series by Maritim)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sherlock Holmes is a radio play series produced by Maritim . It is based on the novels of the same name by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and was written between 2003 and 2011.

action

The Maritim Verlag under Carsten Hermann published the first episode of the Sherlock Holmes radio play series on November 10, 2003 with the title Das Haus bei den Blutbuchen . The episodes were published from now on rather arbitrarily, had some changes in the story and often overlapped the plot arc; while Dr. Watson meets Holmes' brother Mycroft in one case , he says that they last met in the case of The Greek Interpreter , but this case had not yet appeared as a radio play. The unusually good friendship between Holmes and Inspector Lestrade is also striking , as the two characters in the novels couldn't stand each other.

Self-written cases

The episodes 61-66 are based solely on Doyle's motifs. Some of them were created before the regular cases were closed, but were not published until 2013. How Watson learned the trick (61) is purely informational and contains no case. The consequences The Missing Sherlock Holmes (62), The Three Murderers of Sir William (63), Fog of Terror (64) and When the Master Lost Himself (65) are also rather informative and do not contain a typical case.

The death as a guest at Mallory Manor (66) was created in spring 2007. Maritim originally planned to release it as an interactive DVD, on which the listener could intervene in the story. You should also be able to decide whether, as usual, you would like to hear Christian Rode and Peter Groeger or Joachim Hansen and Mogens von Gadow in the two main roles ; Hansen and von Gadow set this version to music for the Polyband label in 1980. You should also be able to switch between Niels Clausnitzer and Jürgen Thormann with Lord Joseph Mallory . Since the completion was too time-consuming, Maritim stopped work on it. It wasn't until 2016 that Hermann Media took up the project again, dispensing with the interactive components and releasing a 4-CD box. Rode and Groeger could be heard here regularly, while the recording with Hansen and von Gadow was released separately in 2018 as an mp3 download and CD. Clausnitzer's recording as Lord Joseph Mallory never appeared. The speakers Friedrich Schoenfelder († 2011), Michael Habeck († 2011), Fritz von Hardenberg († 2010), Philipp Brammer († 2014), Joachim Hansen († 2007) and Niels Clausnitzer († 2014) took their parts before the release and died at the time the radio play was published.

The new cases

After completion of the 66 episodes with Maritim Verlag, the new cases appeared from 2012 with Romantruhe , freely based on motifs by Doyle. Holmes and Watson have the same speakers, Rode and Groeger, but in contrast to the radio plays by Maritim, Inspector Lestrade is not spoken by Volker Brandt , as usual , but by Lutz Harder .

The Old Falls (Reloaded)

Since 2014, Highscore Music has been offering the maritime radio plays with a completely new soundscape and music under the title Die alten Falls (Reloaded) as a download.

The Musgrave Ritual - Live Edition

The two speakers Rode and Groeger performed live in Cologne in 2006 with the case Das Musgrave-Ritual . The recording of the performance was released on September 7, 2006 by Maritim as CD and download. As in the studio version, there are some differences to the original version, e.g. B. Holmes tells the story without verbatim speech and Watson makes considerably more interim comments.

speaker

A well-known cast was included from the start. Christian Rode took over the part from Sherlock Holmes and Peter Groeger took over the part from Dr. Watson in all 66 episodes and also in the radio play series produced by Romantruhe. Volker Brandt took on a recurring role as Inspector Lestrade . Joachim Kerzel took on the role of Holmes' arch enemy Professor Moriarty in The Last Problem .
