N2 - In 1930, Danish National Radio presented a live broadcast of Oscar Wilde’s play Salome as radio play with symphonic music by Emil Reesen (1887–1964). The score and the parts makes it possible to look into those specific procedures that were used in order to adapt to radio and to the requirements of radio drama. I will argue that Reesen as a Radiokapellmeister, i.e. conductor of a radio orchestra and intimately familiar with the technique and the limitations of radio broadcasting, was a key to the successful broadcast. Furthermore, I will show what the music adds to the radio play.
