The Sound of Music Live! is a musical stage production that was televised live on NBC in 2013. It is an adaptation of the beloved 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical "The Sound of Music," which tells the story of Maria, a young woman who becomes a governess for the seven children of Captain Georg von Trapp in pre-World War II Austria.
The live telecast starred country music star Carrie Underwood as Maria, with Stephen Moyer as Captain von Trapp, and Audra McDonald as Mother Abbess. The production was directed by Rob Ashford and Beth McCarthy-Miller, and featured a live orchestra and a cast of more than 50 performers.
The DVD release of "The Sound of Music Live!" includes the full 3-hour production, including all of the songs and scenes from the original musical, as well as behind-the-scenes featurettes that offer a glimpse into the making of the production. The DVD also includes bonus features such as interviews with the cast and crew, rehearsal footage, and a sing-along feature that allows viewers to join in on their favorite songs.
