ABOUT FOREIGN DUBBING ... The Sound of Music was released in many countries and dubbed in numerous languages. These tests, that feature Marni Nixon, serve to show various foreign dubbing groups the range, style and approximate tempo of each song so that foreign voices, in their native languages, can closely match the English screen version. The TALENTED Marni Nixon, seen here, was not dubbing Julie's voice, per say, just creating a visual reel of reference to be used by foreign dubbing groups.

i am so happy the didn't dub julie

[plutopro199415]

She has a nice voice...I was shocked when I learned that was her in West Side Story and My Fair Lady...never noticed haha. But I'm glad Julie Andrews sang in the actual movie.

[thewelford]

I'm in love.

I think this was a reserve track when they thought Julie Andrews couldn't do the movie. So Marni had to learn to sing to Julie's voice.

The "I am so happy they didn't dub Julie" comment made me laugh. Julie Andrews and Marni Nixon are two of the greatest singers I've ever heard. I also love Judy Garland and Edith Piaf.

Why this is titled "Foreign Dubbing Test" is perplexing...the film was in English, and this is also performed in English. Yet that's what's written on the clapperboard at the start of each segment.

I prefer Julie because she has a much more modern voice... Narni's voice is too much old style in my opinion

[BernardProfitendieu]

@meggwtw I was wondering the same thing

[TheTat1992]

@12jenny julie andrews didn't need to be dubbed..haha she had amazing voice.

[meggwtw]

Why would it have to be dubbed for foreign films if she's just singing in English? Hmm..
