Winner of eight Tony Awards when it premiered on Broadway in 1959, the perennially popular The Sound of Music chronicles the journey of a high-spirited young novice who is dispatched from the convent to become a governess for the seven unruly children of a stern, widowed Austrian naval captain. As she wins the love and respect of the children, she captures the heart of their father as well. Set against the gathering storm clouds of World War II, The Sound of Music is a story about coming of age and learning to understand ones own heart. The timeless score includes The Sound of Music, Do-Re-Mi, Edelweiss, Climb Evry Mountain, Sixteen Going on Seventeen, My Favorite Things, and Maria.
