- Multi-million sales, a spell of 16 weeks at the top of the US chart, and winning Gold Disc and Grammy Awards were fitting rewards for this memorable recording of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II's much-loved musical which opened on Broadway in November 1959. The show's stars, Mary Martin and Theodore Bikel, were in fine vocal form, and led the excellent cast through the score's highlights, which included `My Favourite Things', `Do-Re-Mi', and `Edelweiss' - the last song that Rodgers and Hammerstein wrote together before the latter's death in 1960.
- One of the best-selling albums of all time, the original soundtrack for the film version of Rodgers & Hammerstein's THE SOUND OF MUSIC is above all a showcase for the formidable talents of Julie Andrews. She plays the novitiate Maria, governess and eventual mother to the seven musically gifted children of the widower Captain Trapp. During the swinging '60s much was made of Andrews' ultra-wholesome image in both this film and Disney's Mary Poppins. What can't be denied is Andrews' uniquely British brand of down-to-earth charisma.
- From the first bird-chirping strains introducing the famous opening scene in which Maria sings the title song amongst the Alps, Andrews is in utter command of this material. She so ably enacts her character's belief in the redemptive power of music--the real theme of this last and most universal of Rodgers & Hammerstein's musicals--that her bright performances of the justly revered "My Favorite Things" and the singing lesson "Do-Re-Mi" are suffused with intelligence and conviction.

I just LOVE this - but it has as much to do with my childhood as anything else. My kids and I listen to it a lot when we are eating in the evings. One downside is that there are quite a lot of filler tracks though - meldeys and hilarious polite 1960s interviews with the actors and director for example which some people might not like

A timeless classic which still entertains today...
The songs are bought to life time and time again continuously whether it be by remixes by todays top artists or a trip through time at the theatre where you can sing along to the magic that is Maria and her band of talented charges.
Mr Von Trapps sweet melodic voice enhances the beautiful song "edelweiss" (sp)
