Product Description Gorgeous, archival photographs of shows and architecture combined with authentic recordings bring the roaring twenties in Berlin to life. From Kurt Tucholsky to Marlene Dietrich: authors, composers and performers present an intimate view to a riotously comic and tragic era. Music CDs: No cultural history would be complete without the hit songs composed by Ralph Benatzky, Werner Richard Heymann, Friedrich Hollaender, Rudolf Nelson, and Mischa Spoliansky; presented here on four CDs with wonderful archival recordings of Marlene Dietrich, Curt Bois, The Comedian Harmonists, Trude Hesterberg and Margo Lion.

Sprechen Sie Deutsch? June 18, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Unless you are fluent in German, you'll be greatly disappointed by this otherwise excellent compilation. MAJOR PROBLEM: There is NO libretto!! C'mon... Give us a German libretto to these songs at least!
The re-mastered CD's are nearly flawless, no hiss & hardly a pop from these old recordings. The book is beautiful, well written with some great photographs. It's packaged like a Grand Opera... But where's the damn libretto!!!?? Some 'big-thinker' at EarBooks must have made an executive decision (to save a buck), that landed this album in the bargain bin at Amazon).
Great Weimar atmospheric music... But I wish I knew the words!
