The Sound of Music

*SPOILER FREE

Let's start at the very beginning

A very good place to start

When you read, you begin with A-B-C

When you sing, you begin with Do-Re-Mi

- come on, don't be shy -

Do-Re-Mi

Do-Re-Mi

The first three notes just happen to be

Do-Re-Mi

Do-Re-Mi

Do-Re-Mi-Fa-So-La-Ti

- I mean, seriously, you don't want me to keep me singing alone. It would sound like I'm making you hate the classical masterpiece -

Do, a deer, a female deer

Re, a drop of golden sun

Mi, a name, I call myself

Fa, a long, long way to run

So, a needle pulling thread

La, a note to follow So

Ti, a drink with jam and bread

That will bring us back to Do, oh, oh, oh

The Sound of Music is family biography musical-drama set in 1930s Austria and following Maria, an aspiring and loving nun, as she takes care of 7 motherless children. Maria will bring love and music into the lives of the children and their retired naval officer father.

A heartfelt story of family and love, breathtaking cinematography of the Austrian city of Salzburg, and out of the world list of songs that will echo in your ears and heart for good. The Sound of Music is the very definition timelessness.

If you have never seen it, you'd probably heard its music. And if you haven't had both, you'd probably want to fix that ASAP. Grab every single member of your family; the two-year old and the 80, get all kinds of snacks and drinks prepared, and click start for one of a kind experience with the two most important things in life, family and music.

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, and good night.
