Sound of Music - 40 years later

[erty1800]

What I wanna know is why did the teachers at school make us watch the boy in the striped pajamas when we could have watched the sound of music?

[sillycheesecakes]

the sound of music is very close to my heart because i have theatre memories in school with it. this never fails to give me goosebumps. :)

[swmdal]

It's slightly possible that this could have been Judy Garland singing, because her last performances were as late as 1969, although her voice was a wreck by then (not unlike her daughter Liza's today.) But, this sounds more like Shirley Bassey than any of the other voices suggested here.

[dadette2363]

old people!

[Oddityworld]

I saw this on stage, that was my first time seeing it. The role of Maria was played by a beautiful African American woman but she fit the part so well that now it's weird to see Maria with blonde hair. I have to say that I loved the musical and all of the singing, the story is wonderful. I am a big fan and now I will see the movie.

[ruby12675]

i will never forget this...since when i was a kid..i watched the movie of Sounds of Music..and i really love it...i was thinking that i am the one that time...i feel the long long time ago....maybe i will believe that i am the reincarnation

[tamar0978]

This movie I watched when i was teenager, I was introduced to this fantastic movie while I was visiting my Aunt in her convent, She is a nun, and this was their favorite movie in the convent of course a romantic story of a nun who founds her blue prince true love while being the nanny of his children, I am sure it continues being the favorite for all novice.

[miguelmouta]

It was a time NATO was hidden a lot of SS criminals. Soon became the hippies. Great tactics. Sieg Heil Odessa !

[ladyp983]

[Fantagecomic0]

Time always has to pass

[Kennuckle1]

That makes me feel so sad there all grown up.

[Vaelsung1]

WHERE IS ROLF?, Daniel Truhitte?

[Josedehesa]

A song with a voice, a Voice with song!!!!!!!!!!!!Simply terrific!!!!!

[qwinkly]

I wish she wasn't so "scoopy" with the singing near the beginning.

[UnderSeriousThreat]

Some pictures are so small.... arrange them as a slide show instead of a collage.

[SuperBlueberry1]

It's amazing how beautiful Julie Andrews still looks nowadays. She hasn't changed a bit. I certainly remembered watching this movie/musical when I was abit more than 10 years old. It brings back good memories.

[DaveysMom]

@Gleek592 My bad!

[parodign60]

Beautiful movie. The movie of all times. Shirley Bassey, just no words to describe her voice.

[bboysfan1995]

Oh wow, this is great. Thanks for uploading the video!

[fiperfectafi]

Great video, thanks !

It's so touching...

[jesuspraiser25]

10's across the board!!!!! I don't care who sang that,it was beautiful and powerful!!

[XXsarahleylandXX]

they have changed alot

[LooneyM3]

growing up i was in love with Regita.. WTF happened.. this is cool .. movie will always be a classic until the end of time

[DaveysMom]

@LooneyM3 Funny - cuz Regita was the cute little girl in the Doris Day/James Garner movie "The Thrill of it All"....too cute!

[criscoutomiguel]

filme da minha vida, muito sensível e inpirador

[FriendofRamblinJack]

I used to work with Marni's niece in Newport Beach. It is Shirley Bassey. And please find some class and stop ignorantly and classlessly and excusingly throwing the word "gay" into descriptions, derogatorily or otherwise.

[Marisaguria]

Shirley Bassey, indiscutivelmente. É ela a intérprete nesse clip.

[gcook4n6]

First of all, it is clearly NOT Julie Andrews, Mary Martin, or Marni Nixon. While there are some similarities to Judy Garland, especially in the upper belt range, the vibrato is all wrong. My money is on Shirley Bassey. Although the interpretation is a little square for her, her funky pronounciation of "moun-tayne" is unmistakable. Oh, the movie came out in 1965, and I'm pretty sure Peggy Wood did her own singing as the Mother Abbess. I know for sure Marni Nixon did NOT sing this in the film.

[gcook4n6]

I stand corrected: Peggy Wood WAS dubbed, but by Marjery McKay. Peggy had been a Broadway singer, but this was late in her career, and she felt she could no longer do the song justice. She liked Marjery's voice because it was similar to her own.

[bigdaddystephen]

Hey To Everyone. You all loose your GAY Points. This is Mary Martin, the original broadway star of Sound of Music as well as South Pacific and Peter Pan She is also the mother of Larry Hagman, JR from Dallas and The Captain on I Drean of Jeanie

[ferbrinner]

It would be imposible that Martin sang this music because this song is played in the show by the Mother Abess; the singer is Patricia Neway (and Im not gay, in fact, I dont know what gays have to do with this)

[bigdaddystephen]

The Gay Thing is a joke silly. I saw the original and have the original cast recording. The images in the video at from the film SOund of Music. Pat Neways had a classically trained voice and sang like an opera singer with a much higher range than you hear here. Where the recording has come from I do not know, but it is Mary Martin's voice. There we have it for what it's worth. Stephen

[chriswales19]

This is Shirley Bassey - OBVIOUSLY!

[GimmeKitty]

@chriswales19 Marvellous!

Would someone please kindly upload the Oprah Winfreyj show appearance of the cast?

[alex38bsas]

que feo ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡  ugly ¡¡¡¡

[markedwardindc]

Continuing!!! Interestingly, Marni Nixon did not appear on screen (doing her own singing, thank you very much!) until she appeared as a nun in "The Sound of Music!" The original broadway cast starred Theodore Bikel as the Captain and Mary Martin as Maria.

[markedwardindc]

Well, let's see...where shall we start? This movie was released in 1965 (and won the Academy Award as Best Picture of that year). Next, Marni Nixon sang for a lot of people in the movies, notably for Deborah Kerr in "The King and I," Natalie Wood in "West Side Story" and Audrey Hepburn in "My Fair Lady;" however, Peggy Wood did all her own singing in the movie version of "The Sound of Music."

[xxxrosequarzxxx]

this is the song sang by the sister to tell maria to go back

[joss364]

this is great!!!

thanks so much.

[marian517]

who's this horrible insult to Julie whats wrong whith this guy please show some respect please

[PeterPiper00]

Whho on earth is singing this? It'ś definitely not Julie Andrews.

[sinnerpeace]

julie andrews didnt sing it orginally if you remember the movie.

[GeorgeWTush]

The singer is Shirley Bassey.

[Evelyn40420]

Don´t like your video, it´s boring: only 3-4 pictures????

[jfreiret]

O filme que mais me marcou desde a minha infância.

The film that I love forever...

Thanks to all

[012170]

monkeefan75

wow, thanks for that info . . . . .

[gasmmusic]

This is not the original cast of the SOUND OF MUSIC. The pictures are from the film cast (1960)

The original cast starred Mary Martin and Theodore Bikel as Maria and the Captain, respectivly. The original cast opened on Broadway in 1958, 59.

The clip of "Climb Ev'ry Mountain" also is not from the original cast recording. I should know, I have it. This version is also not from the film version, either.

Marni Nixon dubbed for Peggy Wood in the film.

[sinnerpeace]

original movie cast u twit....

[gasmmusic]

Excuse me?

1. This is not Marni Nixon singing for Peggy Wood in the 1960 film version of THE SOUND OF MUSIC

2. This is not from the original cast recording (Broadway 1959). That cast starred Theodore Bikel and Gertrude Lawrence.

There is no such thing as the "original movie cast." There is only one movie cast. the pictures in this video are from that 1960 film. The audio you hear is probably Judy Garland who sang the song a few years later.

[sinnerpeace]

the orginal movie cast that starred in the movie sound of music....I know your wanting to be a snoot about this but your wrong there is a broadway musical that is original and then there is the movie version that was made....the person singing is not a voice from the movie cast no doubt about this...we all are impressed with your extensive knowledge of the broadway musical of sound of music but you seem to be denigrating the movie version when there is no need too....

[aramuskguy]

1960? Isn't it 1965?

[wheelnut059]

You're right, It's Judy Garland definitely.

[dotmacis]

I don't know who this singer is, but I can sure tell you that it's NOT Judy Garland.

[swmdal]

I believe Marni Nixon sang it in the movie. She dubbed singing for many actresses in the fifties and sixties, including, among others, Audrey Hepburn.

[musicman03]

I meant is this her singing this song?

[012170]

no that;s julie andrews

[soapaddictive]

its not julie andrews singing

[musicman03]

Is this Judy Garland?

[kittengirl1000]

Don't think so, it doesn't sound like her.

[wildtornjerry]

It's from the movie. The nun sang the song who was Maria's mentor. But it's in a much higher note. XD

[balloydspiritsoul]

Who sang the song? Definitely not from the movie right? But more emotional than in the movie. Thanks!

[monkeefan75]

Amazing how much they've all grown up since the original airing of this wonderful movie/musical! It's one of my favorites and always will be! Thanks for putting this together! Very nice!

[orosamel]

you are very welcome.

[orosamel]

I want to give credit to Rollie Grande for inspiring me to do this vid. Now go and climb every mountain . . . and get your dreams!!!! Coach
