In 1999, the Gran Teatre del Liceu launched a policy of audiovisual productions that has resulted in television broadcasts, live transmissions to cinemas, the development of projects such as ̉pera Oberta (for universities) or Anella Cultural (for municipal theatres all over Catalonia), and the publication of over thirty titles in DVD format.
One of the Liceu's top priorities is reaching out to ever larger audiences. The new technologies are the means of attaining the goal that inspires it: that of being "an opera house for everyone", a facility at the service of the public. Broad-band internet and high-definition satellite transmissions are the technologies used in this endeavour.
