As part of Fandom Summer, Babes Maria, Ardy and Sarah talk to
Alicia, Elliot and Matt, who are the masterminds behind the
Sherlock Fan Orchestra, a wonderful project that brings the
musicians of the Sherlock fandom together to play pieces from the
official soundtrack. Look at their latest video, Pursuit, and make sure you follow them
on Twitter: @elliotorin, @matterhines and @alicemundy. Find out how the
logistics of a big fan project work, how long it takes and what
work is involved in wrangling a mass of musicians from across the
globe to play a piece as a symphonic orchestra. (Hint: it's a lot,
and it still sounds like pure magic to us). Also, what crazy
instruments have people submitted, and what can we hope for from
the orchestra in the future? Listen to the podcast for answers to
all these questions and more. The Sherlock Fan Orchestra is
endorsed and supported by the show's cast and crew, including
Michael Price and
David Arnold, the
composers of the soundtrack.
