Sound of Music – the original

The book 'The Story of the Trapp Family Singers' by Maria von Trapp, based on her life, provided the inspiration for the subsequent films and musical. An Austrian who emigrated with her family to the US to escape the Second World War, Maria co-wrote both scripts for the German film productions to maintain authenticity. The American producers picked up on the success of the films and decided to transform the story into a musical. The 5-time Oscar-winning masterpiece still leaves a lasting impression on audiences the world over.
