The Sound of Music captured the hearts of millions when the film debuted in 1965. Now, forty years later, the von Trapp's family legacy is born anew. Meet the von Trapp Children: Sofia (19), Melanie (17), Amanda (16), and Justin (13). They are the great-grandchildren of Captain von Trapp, father of the famous singing family whose story captivated the world in the musical The Sound of Music. The children have continued the tradition of the family's exceptional musical gift and love of singing, sharing songs and heart-warming family stories of life before and after coming to America.
The von Trapp Children perform a variety of folk and classical songs from various European and American traditions, as well as timeless pieces from The Sound of Music. The children's effervescent voices mesh the way only a family's can, and musicians and audiences of all ages recognize the children's beautiful harmonic blend and pristine tone.
