Ivan Hewett presents a special edition live from Berlin, the new capital of a unified Germany and one of the most culturally vibrant cities in Europe. Despite renewed optimism, money is tight, and the ghosts of a divided past still haunt the city. How should resources be shared between the east and west parts of the city? And does Berlin really need three opera houses? Leading conductors, musicians and cultural commentators debate the politics of Berlin's cultural life.
