ABOUT THE SOUND OF MUSIC
Produced and directed by Robert Wise, and starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, with Richard Haydn and Eleanor Parker. The film is an adaptation of the 1959 Broadway musical of the same name, composed by Richard Rodgers with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. The film's screenplay was written by Ernest Lehman, adapted from the stage musical's book by Lindsay and Crouse. Based on the memoir The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria von Trapp, the film is about a young Austrian woman studying to become a nun in Salzburg in 1938 who is sent to the villa of a retired naval officer and widower to be governess to his seven children. After bringing and teaching love and music into the lives of the family through kindness and patience, she marries the officer and together with the children they find a way to survive the loss of their homeland through courage and faith.
The film was released on March 2, 1965 in the United States, initially as a limited roadshow theatrical release. Although critical response to the film was widely mixed, the film was a major commercial success, becoming the number one box office movie after four weeks, and the highest-grossing film of 1965. By November 1966, The Sound of Music had become the highest-grossing film of all-time-surpassing Gone with the Wind-and held that distinction for five years. The film was just as popular throughout the world, breaking previous box-office records in twenty-nine countries. Following an initial theatrical release that lasted four and a half years, and two successful re-releases, the film sold 283 million admissions worldwide and earned a total worldwide gross of $286,000,000.
The Sound of Music received five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. The film also received two Golden Globe Awards, for Best Motion Picture and Best Actress, the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement, and the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written American Musical. In 1998, the American Film Institute (AFI) listed The Sound of Music as the fifty-fifth greatest American movie of all time, and the fourth greatest movie musical. In 2001, the United States Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".
ABOUT RODGERS & HAMMERSTEIN
After long and highly distinguished careers with other collaborators, Richard Rodgers (Composer, 1902-1979) and Oscar Hammerstein II (Librettist/Lyricist, 1895-1960) joined forces in 1943 to create the most successful partnership in American musical theater. Prior to joining forces, Rodgers collaborated with lyricist Lorenz Hart on musical comedies that epitomized wit and sophistication (Pal Joey, On Your Toes, Babes In Arms and more), while Hammerstein brought new life to operetta and created the classic Show Boat with Jerome Kern. Oklahoma!, the first Rodgers & Hammerstein musical, introduced an integrated form that became known as “the musical play.” Their shows that followed included Carousel, South Pacific, The King and I, and The Sound of Music. Collectively, the Rodgers & Hammerstein musicals have earned Tony, Oscar, Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer, and Olivier Awards. The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization is a Concord Company, www.concord.com.

I just heard that Christopher Plummer passed away - this was the first song to come to mind. Bless you Christopher Plummer. ❤️
I thought about this song as well when I heard the news, It's the type of song you can't forget.
Me too! This song was my first thought when i heard the news, specifically the part when Liesl joins and they sing together, because she passed away a few years ago, so...
Now it hits different, god bless them (and Louisa too) ❤️
As me
Me and my sister spent every Christmas Eve watching "Sound of Music" in 80's --- this song reminds me of a Christmas carol --- RIP, Mr. Plummer
💕❤
My dad used to sing this to me every night when I was a child. Just hearing or reading the word "edelweiss" brings back so many memories. I'm tearing up listening to this
+holiboys I am the complete polar opposite. I sang this in choir about 30 years ago.... Still haven't been able to get the damn words outta my head!
+holiboys Dude, my mom sang this to me all the time... she didn't know any actual lullabies but she remembered this from her childhood. It used to make me feel so safe and calm.
im singing this to my little girl everytime putting her to sleep. it never fails!
Your dad sounds lovely...lucky you! :)
Edelweiss is also my father's favourite song from the movie.
Hey world, that’s my Dad dubbing the singing for Christopher Plummer! His name was Bill Lee and he also sang Younger Than Springtime for John Kerr in South Pacific. So proud of him!! ❤️❤️❤️
Wow, that’s amazing! What an iconic voice, what I always hear in my head when I think of this song, truly beautiful! Sending love to your family in these times
Thank you so much! I’m still so proud of my Dad and the amazing job he did
Your father had a beautiful singing voice and brought joy to so many. You are rightly proud of him.
He also sang for John Kerr, Lt. Cable in the movie version of South Pacific. He ROCKED Younger Than Springtime and his other songs were You’ve Got to Be Taught and My Girl Back Home
Good job your dad did. Watching the flick now, I think they dubbed EVERYBODY except JULIE and those NUNS! When the kids sing, it sounds like a generic chorus, instead of little children! Am I right, or did they just sweeten some of the folks? I admit I was pissed about the weest girls dissing of the tv version of 'TSOM', so like to take digs at the old favorite! ( The tv special was doing THE STAGE PLAY, not the film!)
Was anybody else undubbed or unsweetened, even CHARMAINE CARR? Do you know?
I know that was the thing back then, to dub!
My grandma used the melody of this song and came up with different lyrics using my name as a lullaby to help me fall asleep when I was a newborn. Still remains my favorite lullaby to this day. This brought me to tears hearing it, as it reminds me of my grandma and she’s getting older and more forgetful.
What Beautiful memories you have. Such a Blessing.
My grandmother was 69 WHEN I was Born my dad IS 71...
that's so sweet. u have an amazing grandma
What a beautiful memories
🤗
Eleanor Parker’s performance as the The Baroness is underrated. She’s very subtle, and makes what could have been a pantomime ‘wicked stepmother’ a surprisingly nuanced and interesting character.
It’s her reactions here that tell us that Maria is in love with the Captain, rather than anything Julie Andrews herself does.
Very clever.
Agreed, it was great decision to have us come to the realization before Maria. It exemplifies Maria's inner thoughts of not being competent enough, and feeling she is in a lower class than him. It makes everyone wonder why he would be seeing her instead of the Baroness.
The Baroness was really well written. Instead of being the wicked stepmom, as you mentioned, its more of a tragic but inevitable story of her progressively slipping from his sight. Much more emotionally captivating, and gives us a bittersweet feeling when things start to wrap up.
@@ty_hens I agree, I always felt very sympathetic towards the baroness, but she was very gracious and (in the end) magnanimous when it came to accepting defeat. At the same time there was never anything malicious about Maria, she was never stealing him away. So well written
well said. she's a kind and understanding person at heart.
I always loved her character precisely for what you described. Lol
Something I’d love to see one day would be a serious, historically accurate to the letter, biopic of the Von Trapps.
The Sound of Music is a stone cold classic but is of course a musical fantasy inspired by their story.
It would be fascinating to see a true depiction, much wider in scope, detailing Maria and Georg’s marriage, their own children, Father Franz Wasner’s role in the formation of the ‘Trapp Family Choir’, their experience under Nazi annexation which included Captain Von Trapp meeting Hitler and being ‘requested’ to perform at his birthday, their move to America, the death of Georg, the use of their home as a 27-room ski lodge, the writing of Maria’s autobiography and culminating in the making of the Sound of Music movie.
I just realised - if Liesl was 16 here, and Gretl is 5, then their mother must have died when Liesl was 11... so she would have definitely remembered her father singing and being happy/nice to his children. It must have been horrible for her to suddenly have things change to the way they were at the beginning of the film. :( I just noticed that because of how happy Liesl seems at 1:12 to have her father back!
Oh
pentatroyephan I thought of that too!
pentatroyephan yes! And Friedrich would've been 9, Louisa 8, Kurt 6, Brigitta 5, and Marta would've been 2! It makes perfect sense now!
Good
11 going on 12
I love pop music, rock music, metal music, everything, but nothing beats the beauty of music like this honestly.
This has nothing to Do with Austria
Horrible.

Takes me back to when I was 15 years old. My boyfriend and I were running in the rain, his eyeglasses fell off and I stepped on it. We have been married for 42 years ❤

You mean gorgeous handsome???
My mother in her near last days , when we thought that her mind was gone, while hearing this music, for a few seconds was wide eyes oppen, and said , "what a beautiful music" she was 88, cancer and severe mind illness, but somehow this music did what medicine could not, for a space of time , even for a few moments, she was her old self.
God bless the authors of this lovely melody.
Regards from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Good and sweet music is an excellent treatment and comfort in dark times
To better appreciate the meaning of Oscar Hammerstein’s Edelweiss lyrics,
one needs to know that he was dying of stomach cancer when he wrote the “last song for the “Sound of Music Musical”. It is the last song because the early audience of the Broadway Show of this musical asked “ Why did all the family of Von Trapp sing but the Captain did not sing??
So Hammerstein was asked to quickly come up with the lyrics that would accompany the melody Mr. Rogers would right…a farewell song melody… I believe Hammerstein dying of cancer is imagining himself transitioning from farewell Earth to Hello…into “his homeland heaven greeted by a beautiful white flower every morning” Imagine it is the end of winter in Heaven & the first flower of Spring in Heaven's homeland is this white flower happy to greet him……” “May you bloom and grow Bloom and grow forever... Edelweiss...Edelweiss... Bless my homeland forever...(Time does not exist in Heaven, Edelweiss blooms FOREVER!!!) From Wikipedia..”Richard Rodgers felt Captain von Trapp should have a song with which he would “bid farewell “ to the Austria he knew and loved.[1] Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II decided to write an extra song that von Trapp would sing towards the end of the show.[2] …. Edelweiss" is the last song Rodgers and Hammerstein wrote together; Hammerstein was suffering from stomach cancer,[3] which took his life nine months.
I just read an article that Christopher Plummer tried to pass my Dad’s singing for him as “most of it”. I’m here to set the record straight, every single note of Eidelweiss was dubbed by my fantastic Dad, Bill Lee ❤️❤️❤️
Tf?
for real??
Sorry but Christopher’s voice would’ve been better if you listen to the original recording. Sounds more natural
@@k.robinson6561 not the point bruv
Sorry your dad wasnt given credit. Hollywood is really shitty about that sort of thing (among many other things).
This hurts today. Grew up on this movie.
Time is so precious
Same here
Same here
RIP Christopher Plummer. You were an incredible actor.
My Grandmother and therefore mother were Swiss (who also embrace the Edelweiss as a national symbol), we sang this song to end the funeral service for both of them, my mother recently. I will have this sung to end my service some day. I cry every time I hear it....may you bloom and grow forever Mom...

My mom used to hum this to get me to sleep when I was an infant. To this day, almost 32 years later I can’t help but feel safe and sleepy whenever I hear it. I guess that’s how I felt way back then and it’s just one of those things where you respond out of habit.
I sang this to my son when I was putting him to sleep myself…. It’s very calming and peaceful 😊
The first time, and only time, I saw my father shed a tear at the movies... This song touched him...
chuck weigel It's very moving indeed.
Dear Chuck, ICan perfectly understand it : when I heard this song for the frst time sung by th Captain Von Trapp at the festival I felt myself being Austrian, which is completely strange, as my nation fought for its emancipation from the austrian rule. U Maybe the fact I have been living abroad for more than ten years has caused I first time felt more
the similities instead of differences.
Lubo... well said!
Did he serve in WW11?
Its funny, no austrian knows this song. Its pure american musicalkitsch.
I know Christopher hated this movie, but he was still excellent in it. Hope he’s at peace, and bless him forever.
Why did he hate it??
Whyd he hate it
@@GE-lh8eq For one he hated working with Children. When he was young he had more of an ego and felt children stole the show and people would forget his presence. Also he was not usually accustomed to acting in musicals and family movies. He also didn’t care for the character of Captain Von Trapp. Saying once “he was a boring character.”
In his personal memoir he confessed that he really loved the movie after all! And he also said he felt pride to be a part of it!!
so upset about his death I really just can't believe this
My grandma used to sing this to me before I would sleep at night as I was afraid of the dark and couldn’t fall asleep ❤️
How nice
from i was young i love singing it for my mum she loves this song and Christopher Plummer ❤
That's beautiful, God bless that man.
🤗🤗🤗 so cute
Also, I like DrPepper too
So She would indoctrinate you into ur noble whiteness?
I played this for my Nana in her final days and recorded my singing for her funeral service. She loved musicals and the song will be our forever connection. ❤
The song is really about Maria. She is Edelweiss - the sweet simple flower of the mountains that he loves - but he doesn't know it yet, nor does she. The Baroness sees trouble coming though. Love the cut to Maria right on the words "you look happy to meet me". Brilliant film-making.
+Abradacamera Its a tribute to Austria during the period it was annexed by Nazi Germany. He felt he would never see the Austrian alps again after they fled.
@K Church That's the second time he sings it at the theatre
K Church that was when he was leaving Austria, to escape the Nazis, not in the scene perfect described between Maria and Captain Von Trapp
In the clip.
It may also be to Agathe von Trapp, his late wife... especially when Liesl joins in.
My dad just passed away. He used to sing this to me when I was a kid, to help me sleep. Very emotional for me.
Fiona Zerbst I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Stay strong.
I wish you meet with him in heaven. God bless him.
Aww 😭🙏🏽❤️
Fiona Zerbst You were blessed as I was to have parents that cared about us.My deepest condolences go out to you and your loved ones.
And I raise you all up and those experiencing the same loss now to the Lord in prayer.
May He reassure you with the knowledge that your beloved father is with Him.And one day you will reunite with all your loved ones in His eternal Kingdom of Peace,Love and Joy.
Fiona Zerbst how old were you
My dad introduced us to this movie..first movie we ever watched on our very first dvd player and..we watched this every weekend and holidays..my dad wanted my siblings and I to be a musical family..he bought me my first guitar.. I miss you Daddy. Rest in peace Daddy.
The world has gone through so much upheaval. This song is a stark reminder that we should be careful about where we are headed.
this is a beautiful song. I don't know if its the way Christopher Plummer sings it or the lyrics but there is something very warm and soothing about this song. All of the songs in this movie are just extraordinary.
CeltycSparrow Christopher Plummer didn't sing it. Sounds like him, though.
Viewers also had no idea that it's wasn't Plummer's voice on the song. The plan was to have him sing, but despite lessons he took before filming, his singing voice proved far from film quality (especially when juxtaposed with Julie Andrews) and a professional singer named Bill Lee was brought in to overdub his singing parts. Plummer explains in his autobiography that he was terrified when they brought him into a studio to record the song, and that Julie Andrews held his had to try and settle him. Plummer learned that singing is very different than acting.
+Zoltan Balint oh I never knew that.
rw: in fact also its my favorite too through the whole movie,it even makes me sing ,to tell the truth its calm soothing and has a gentle feeling to it 3-).
CeltycSparrow Actually Bill Lee is the voice you hear. His voice was dubbed over Christopher Plummers .
My mom has dementia. She loves and can sing this song. It makes me so happy. 🙂 I'm going to call mom today!
@Dhruv B She is. Her situation protects her from the reality of the situation. But it makes me sad that I cannot visit her in person. 😟
yooo we have very similar profile pictures!!
@@joshuawood7758 neato! 😄
My Grandma had dementia too and could still sing this song right to her last day. It’s comforting to think that the mind often remembers these beautiful favourite songs even when the rest of the mind is gone. Best wishes to you and your Mom!
Awww, that is so special and so sorry your mother has dementia. Definitely call her and enjoy each day ❤
One of my Dad's favorite songs -- miss him so much, lost him when I was 30 & he was 60 back in 1987; now I'm 66 and can't believe how young he was when he died -- listening to this songs brings him back to me. Love you Daddy!
I played this piece at my Dads funeral he loved it ..God bless him ❤
...He loved it when you played this at HIS funeral???
...good lord...
@@MONAGHANSEANDAVID yes because in my dream he talked to me and he said thank you for the beautiful song. 😊
RIP Christopher Plummer, such a talent to the world
This wasn't his voice singing this song though :( you should hear his actual recording though! It's so raw and beautiful
RIP😭😇🙏
@@jackenjoy1929 naw! I'm just plain happy go lucky!
He was a world treasure.
Can you imagine, though, Captain and his first wife singing this together with their children gathered around them? Oh gosh, who is cutting onions in here?
I have a feeling they did sing that together before his first wife died.
Lol
Is anyone here after Christopher Plummers death? I am crying right now. His role in the Sound of music was iconic, and even if he had so many other acting roles, one of which he even won an Oscar for, I'm sure we can all agree that he will be remembered as our Captain Von Trapp. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
I thi k we are all here to appreciate this great actor
@Switzer Tim I agree, Christopher Plummer is a great actor and he has a great singing voice. The only other movies I have seen him on were "The Return Of The Pink Panther", "National Treasure", and "Up."
@@afriendofbean Except it's not him singing. His voice was dubbed.
@@mattiasdanieldamsgaardwood1315 Yes, I'm hearing that from someone else that he wasn't really singing here. So I would guess that would mean that he's not much of a singer which is unknown as to why he auditioned to be in this film which is a musical since I thought people who love to sing audition for musicals. On the other hand, I would guess that actor Rick Moranis is not much of a singer too but, he auditioned for the movie "Little Shop Of Horrors" which is a musical. (All the other movies I have seen Rick Moranis on, he didn't sing).
Meh. I thought he was better as Arngeir in "Skyrim."
I kid, I kid! 😅
My mother who escaped Slovakia during communism with my father told me the story of the Edelweiss and that it grows in the Alps and the high Tatras. This flower has survived through so much and many of us hold it dear to our hearts because it reminds us of the beauty from whence we came.
edelweiss is a white flower which grows in the Alps

Grows in any mountains in different countries - it is crocus family......
National Flower of Switzerland
A little pearl hidden among the mountains.
I always thought that ment something in old German
Sir Torres Andrew I think literally it’s something like “noble white”.

i remember writing on my notebook. good times.
One of the most beautiful scenes of this movie. Christopher Plummer is forever pure elegance. May he rest peacefully. 🕊😇🌹❤️
The look from Maria to the baroness to the captain's brother always gets me. The moment they all knew that the captain no longer belonged to the baroness. He was Maria's from that moment on. I love this entire scene. How happy the children look listening to their father sing. It's a beautiful scene and so many unsaid words are said.
Rest in peace Christopher. You brought a lasting piece of music to many families around the world. Forever may you hold a place in our hearts.
RIP Christopher. Thank you for your amazingly fantastic songs
Liesel was so beautiful. I don't know if I'm spelling her name right. But she was so stunning!!

im 13 years old and i love this song with my life. just 2 weeks ago my abuelo (abuelo means grandfather in spanish) died. today im going to his burial and this used to be one of his favorite songs. he always used to sing it out loud with his heart. i loved him so much. but hes in a better place now. i love you jacobo.
So sad to hear that, may your grandpa rest in peace😭😇🙏
I'm really sorry to hear this, this movie reminds me of my grandpa as well, my heart is with you and your family in this moment, may he rest in peace, he is singing this song from heaven with Christopher Plummer now
So sad to hear that. They were already in heaven and sang this song together❤
@@lalycasbri88 my heart is with your family as well
Praying for you.
This scene makes me think of warm childhood memories of sitting around with family while my dad played the guitar and sang. When things were good and our family was strong together. I miss those days.
Kaleidalee What happened?
Teresa Longobardi Divorce. Life.
It just makes me think of Nazis. Thanks Man In The High Castle
When he starts singing I get tears in my eyes. This song is so beautiful.
Rest In Peace Mr. Plummer.

watching Charmain and Christopher sing together is bittersweet to watch now
This song makes me cry, Chris is so handsome, and I totally idolized Liesl when I was a little girl. :) I tried to sing along with her at this part
Mia Farrow tried out for liesl.Im glad they chose Charmaine.
me too!!
I read a bit as chris hanson
I’m not sure why, but this song has never failed to make me cry. it’s so comforting, and reminds me of simpler times in my life. this movie was a miracle
Me too... Takes me back to my childhood when the world seemed a better place..
Just finished a nice cry on it. Reminds me of my Mom every time. She is still with us, but it still hits feelings.
Every time I listen to this song it makes me forget all the bad things in the world and makes me hope for world peace. I forget about all the violent crimes and tragedies. I hope one day everyone can live in peace and not in fear 😔
Same here, Well said 👏
You should think about your home land getting a blessing.
My dad introduced my sister and I to The Sound of Music, and he loved this song. To this day I don’t know why we did it, but as he was dying from cancer, my family and I started singing this to him. He passed a few minutes later. Every time I hear these lyrics I remember they were some of the last words he heard. Every word hits different.
“Without jitters, you’re no good, you’d be terrible. They supply all sorts of different colours.” Rest in peace to one of my greatest inspirations in acting, Christopher Plummer. 💛
This is a very lovely song and beautiful movie I am from Vienna 🇦🇹
"Blossom of snow may you bloom and grow forever". The man will forever remain a legend. Rest in Peace
In my place edelweis flowers grow on cold n high places, when me n my late husband was still dating we would love hiking n trekking to mountains to where these flower grow..they come in 2 colors, white n purple here....this song reminds me of my late husband who passed away 9 years ago in young age. Miss him and i hope in heaven he is surrounded by beautiful adelweis n songs....
Godspeed, Christopher Plummer. Thank you for the memories and may God Bless you.
Rest in peace Christopher Plummer your films, especially this one, will live on forever!
My mother used to sing this to me everynight before I went to bed when I was little.
Lucky you! I'd have loved that. This song is beautiful!!!

I was babysitting my niece and she was ill and had a hard time sleeping. I played this song and she was out by the first sentence.
This is the song I could never sing in the right octave before testosterone. I sang it in this octave for the first time today. It feels like things have come full circle, from baby me singing along to Julie Andrews, to now, singing with Christopher Plummer. This movie saved my life. Forever a favorite.
Omggg congratulations
RIP Christopher Plummer, a man whose words have bloomed and grown forever
The Golden Era of Lyrical Cinematography stands alone as the kind that not only delivered an impeccable picture on the Silver screen but also captured and held audiences' attention without the brazen flash of overdone theatrics. White, Clean and bright!
Perfectly summed up.

My wife whose heritage is German-Swiss came down the aisle at our wedding to 'Edelweiss'. Although she always looks lovely, that particular day she looked as beautiful as the edelweiss flower does in the Alps. On our honeymoon we found an Edelweiss scented candle and brought it home with us. I sometimes sing this song to myself and feel happy I married her.
May you eternally rest In the beautiful sound of music, Captain.

Christopher Plummer can sing to me any time day or night .... even 50 years on omg he's drop dead gorgeous
Not him singing had a ghost singer
Do you mean then or now?
He's 90 and he didn't sing it lmao
true story: when i was a grad student at the University of Maryland (2007 or so?) there was this big party at some house right off campus. i was super wasted of course and found a guitar in the corner. i started playing this song and about 15 people gathered around me and we all sang it. was a really neat moment, i remember it to this day!
He was a handsome man. I enjoyed Austria it was beautiful for clean air and walking.
My favorite song from one of the best movies ever. These were the last song lyrics Oscar Hammerstein II ever wrote. He and Richard Rodgers were true geniuses.
Cinderella introduced me to them
R.I.P. Christopher Plummer. A long life, lived well.

My favorite scene along w/ their dance. After realizing what the meaning was as they sang it during the festival, it's even more special.
Rest in peace Christopher Plummer. I just loved this movie
