The Von Trapp Children sing on The View

[thinkglobalfuturenow]

I read the book years ago - it is a fascinating read. Maria was pregnant early during their stage career and would pad out the upper portion of her costume so as to look plump instead of pregnant. Thanks for posting this, the voices and piano arrangement complement each other perfectly.

These great grandkids of Capt.Georg & Baroness Maria Von Trapp are just as talented as their parents and their great grandma.

[ludeman]

Awesome!

[brucecap]

Sory if this is a repeated comment-I was blessed and fortunate to have them come into my Dunkin Donuts in Leominster, MA. Melinda used her debit card and I recognized the name. I got really excited and they gave me a signed CD! They are the nicest people!!

[casymom]

This is fantastic! Love the choreography! The legacy lives on!!! Wonderful!!! I grew up watching "The Sound of Music" & have had my children & grandchildren watch it, all of who enjoy it! My 3 yr old granddaughter just thi.ks they still sing today. :)

[Ducktapelover100]

im related to them im a vontrap

[missingdixie]

Surprising that Baaabra, Joy and Whoopie would allow a Christian song and not walk off...must be because it's claassical sounding. Anyway, I agree with all who expressed their compliments. Hats off to the Von Trapp offspring. The legacy lives on!

[MrLibertyLover]

Does anyone know where to get the piano arrangement the lady used?

[oracle2world]

They look a bit homely.

[Andieg521]

They've got the Jonas Brothers beat in the family singing category.

[StupidMaddie137]

@Andieg521 It's pretty easy to beat them. :b

[sancti78]

those kids are children of who in the von trapp kid?

[wendelara266]

@sancti78 They are the grandchildren of Werner and Erika von Trapp

[stunnerrocker]

and wait the real actress in the movie can really sing right? like leisl.. the oldest daughter? or it's just lip sync?

[yuryema]

The first melody is "Shchedryk" (a Christmas song) by the ukrainian composer Leontovych.

[Bexitaestvita]

They are actually the great grandchildren of the Captain and his first wife, Agathe.

[xXLilxLilyXx]

Love full.. Its feels wierd becaus they are the real Von Trapp... ah well i love it

[blackkinu23]

It would suck if they one of the Von Trapp's descendants couldn't sing. I love their legacy! Grew up watching the Sound of Music over and over. I had no idea this was a true story. I am amazed to see that their family truly can sing this way.

[erciasico]

if you listen closely, the first girl didn't get the right key in the intro, but she pulled it off the next succeeding lines. hehe...

[oretexman]

i saw them in concert 2 weeks ago.i must say i was very impressed.these kids are very good and they are so nice also.wish them all well in the future.hope to see them again in marshall texas

[rachm1991]

[jsadeghi1]

Absolutely amazing.. Gorgoeus kids and superb voices.

[joant1221]

What a fantastic legacy they have.

[rosebud4815]

They have such amazing voices! and I just found out that they are like my neighbors! I love them!!!! :D

[cd72]

I believe, their father is the son of Werner Von Trapp (who was named KURT in the Movie version). I saw these great grandchildren of Captain Georg Von Trapp and his wife Maria Augusta, when they performed at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel on Canada Day 2002. They were awesome! And still are!

[AstonishedMan]

They are the great grandchildren of Captain and Maria Von Trapp from the Sound of Music

[lunargoddess2002]

@AstonishedMan I didnt think that Captain and Maria Von Trapp ever had children together. Weren't they the children from his first wife?

[NaaArwen]

@lunargoddess2002 They had three children together, the youngest was born in Philadelphia.

[Bexitaestvita]

@lunargoddess2002 Yes, these are his grandchildren with his first wife, Agathe.

[tokiohotelerin1989]

are they the ones from the sound of music or are they the reall family members

[coopz7777777]

@tokiohotelerin1989 family, they actually own a hotel in vermont called the von trap family lodge near stowe it's pretty sweet place opened after the movie still owned by family

[niflap]

That's full circle.1:32. Performing music from the musical that made them famous in the 1st place. cool

[toddsgirl13]

saw them in concert at Lakeside in Ohio a few years ago... AMAZING! Met them after, and so sweet and down to earth.

[Banks1042]

Thank for posting. From all of us who grew up with Maria and the Captain's story.

[Dorisequador]

[PomfretAli]

They are God awful, still make a good living of their family history though.

[StephT101]

Oh! That makes sense, duh! Thank You!

[sAINTMalice9]

So beautiful.

[desheckman]

I saw this on The View a few years ago, and it was recorded on my DVR for weeks. I listened to it over and over and over again. I've been looking for it on youtube every year since that Christmas. THANK YOU to whoever posted this video. It blesses me SO MUCH! Their voices are so beautiful that it brings tears to my eyes every time I hear them sing :)

[AstonishedMan]
