I was overwhelmed by the noise and excitement! The first time I heard this radio play, it has almost gefetzt me several times from the hospital bed, because the sounds are quite realistically integrated into the action!
The narrator, does the rest to describe the story of the "Name of the Rose" in me hitherto unknown intensity. Heinz Moog gives the "old" Adson a fascinating vitality and above all credibility. Here speaks the old man, but quite as Adson and as a listener one would like to listen to him lovingly on forever!
The other speakers gain (especially when you close your eyes) sculptural forms. Their voices are reflected in this way the characters again, and they shall also represent. Be it ...
- Abbo Abbot (voiced by Manfred Steffen) or
- Salvatore, who always speaks in different languages (spoken by Wolfgang Reichmann) or
- The ('' evil '') Jorge of Burgos (voiced by Paul Hoffmann), the so wanted to avoid that enters the heretical lies book at issue ultimately to the public.
This radio play (produced by BR / NDR / SWR) is now available in many "cases" (or expenditure) available. But the fact is that it is the Hörspielberabeitung 1986. Originally the play was divided into 4 parts. Here on 6CDs are about 340 minutes of runtime.
Of course, who 'knows the book' The Name of the Rose '' or the film of the same name, so the action does easier to follow.
Unlike most audio books, I mostly listen to on long car trips, this radio play is not as well suited as background music for a long drive. At least not for the driver. To vary the volume-nuances of the speakers. For cozy sit back and stamp Order, or in front of the aquarium fish, however, observed first-class entertainment for the ears!
Tips ... for comparable well-crafted and entertaining radio plays that are come across to me over the years: "The Pillars of the Earth" (7CD as a radio play-processing, based on the novel by Ken Follett), "Pope Joan" (radio play, 2 CD ), "The Hobbit" (4 CDs and a radio play). If you feel the muse which can also be the "Baudolino" (also by U. Eco) put your heart. Unlike "The Focaultsche pendulum" -Hörspiel (a stressful disaster, listening, anyway) is "Baudolino" very entertaining. ;-)
