the sound of musicMusic by Richard Rodgers
Lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II Book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse Suggested by The Trapp Family Singers by Maria Augusta Trapp |
On the 64th anniversary of its Broadway premiere, prepare to fall in love with the heartwarming story and enchanting melodies of a musical that's captured the hearts of audiences around the world.
Based on a captivating true story, the musical follows Maria, a spirited young woman who becomes the governess to the seven children of the von Trapp family prior to the onset of World War II. As she opens their hearts through the power of music, she also captures the heart of their stern, widowed father, Captain von Trapp. However, as the forces of Nazism take hold of Austria, the family is faced with a courageous decision. One that may change their lives forever. Packed with a treasure trove of cherished songs such as "Climb Ev'ry Mountain," "My Favorite Things," Do-Re-Mi," "Sixteen Going on Seventeen" and the title number "The Sound of Music." A winner of five Tony Awards, including Best Musical. |
