Summary:Jonas Kaufmann traces the paths of the great singers and composers during the last years of the Weimar Republic (between Germany's defeat at the end of World War I in 1918, and Hitler's rise to power in 1933). The film is focusing on three pillars: Franz Léhar, Richard Tauber and the heydays of the "Silver Operetta" era; Robert Stolz, Joseph Schmidt and the invention of sound movies; and the diversification of musical styles through international commercialization. It includes excerpts of Jonas Kaufmann's correpetitions with Stellario Fagone in Munich and the recording session for his album in the Funkhaus Berlin.
