Hi Urs, My understanding of copyright is that the date range applies to the published work as a whole, and does not operate on the granularity of individual components. Furthermore, there is no legal requirement to actually have a copyright notice at all, as works are naturally copyright nowadays, and the notice is really only as a partial, and not critical, piece of backup evidence used if cases go to court.
I speak from my knowledge of copyright in Australia, which is bound to be different to Germany, as copyright law is inconsistent across regions.
