Over 9 hours of music on 8 CDs, this definitive set contains Australia's favourite opera masterpieces.

Australians were asked to vote for their favourite opera moment, with the results of the ABC Classic FM radio station's Classic 100 Opera survey broadcast to the world over three days starting on Wednesday 29 March 2006. The final countdown was scheduled to occur live in a Sydney Opera House Concert, culminating with the live performance of the Top 5 opera moments.

The Classic 100 Opera is a unique reflection of local conditions, history and interests. Encapsulated on these eight CDs is a combination of famous and long-beloved works together with new pieces that have touched people today through films, advertising and compact discs. A sheer joy to listen to.

Also available as 2 4-CD sets: Vol. 1 (Nos. 1-50) and Vol. 2 (Nos. 51-100).
