Blu-ray - Deutsche Oper Berlin
Blu-ray
With our DVD productions we stop time. We preserve the moments of an opera performance that are as fascinating as they are fleeting: the earliest complete recording on DVD is DON GIOVANNI from 1961, the most recent Wagner's DER RING DES NIBELUNGEN, which was released on 11 November 2022. In 2023, DER SCHATZGRÄBER and DIE MEISTERSINGER VON NÜRNBERG will be released, in 2024 ANTIKRIST and ARABELLA. The focus has shifted considerably in these 60 years: Whereas in the past mainly popular works were recorded, today there is a special focus on rarely performed works such as Czernowin's HEART CHAMBER or Korngold's WUNDER DER HELIANE. Our discography is like a journey through time: from the austere black and white of the early years to the technically sophisticated high-end production of today: so you can celebrate premieres with us at home any time!
