For its 100th anniversary, the Deutsche Oper Berlin is featured in a special edition of live recordings that were produced since the beginnings of television broadcasts from the opera house.

Following the first DVD collection with recordings from the 1960s, this special edition box contains operas from the 1970s and 1980s – treasures in colour featuring great opera singers, stage directors and contemporary composers.
