Australians were asked to vote for their favourite opera moment, with the result of ABC Classic FM Classic 100 Opera survey broadcast to the world over three days starting on Wednesday 29 March 2006.

The final countdown occurred live in the Sydney Opera House Concert culminating with the live performance of the Top 5 opera moments.

The results have both confirmed what we have always regarded as famous and beloved works and introduced new pieces that have touched people today through films, advertising and compact discs and the sheer joy of listening to them.

Also available: Vol. 1 (Nos. 1-50) and Complete Classic 100 Opera 8-CD set.
