Maria von Trapp teaches Julie Andrews to Yodel

Julie Andrews meets the real Maria von Trapp from the 45th anniversary Blu-ray of THE SOUND OF MUSIC. Originally from The Julie Andrews Hour.
The 1965 film The Sound of Music is produced and directed by Robert Wise, and starring Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, with Richard Haydn and Eleanor Parker. The film is an adaptation of the 1959 Broadway musical of the same name, composed by Richard Rodgers with lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II. The film's screenplay was written by Ernest Lehman, adapted from the stage musical's book by Lindsay and Crouse. Based on the memoir The Story of the Trapp Family Singers by Maria von Trapp, the film is about a young Austrian woman studying to become a nun in Salzburg in 1938 who is sent to the villa of a retired naval officer and widower to be governess to his seven children. After bringing and teaching love and music into the lives of the family through kindness and patience, she marries the officer and together with the children they find a way to survive the loss of their homeland through courage and faith.
The film was released on March 2, 1965 in the United States, initially as a limited roadshow theatrical release. Although critical response to the film was widely mixed, the film was a major commercial success, becoming the number one box office movie after four weeks, and the highest-grossing film of 1965. By November 1966, The Sound of Music had become the highest-grossing film of all-time-surpassing Gone with the Wind-and held that distinction for five years. The film was just as popular throughout the world, breaking previous box-office records in twenty-nine countries. Following an initial theatrical release that lasted four and a half years, and two successful re-releases, the film sold 283 million admissions worldwide and earned a total worldwide gross of $286,000,000.
The Sound of Music received five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. The film also received two Golden Globe Awards, for Best Motion Picture and Best Actress, the Directors Guild of America Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement, and the Writers Guild of America Award for Best Written American Musical. In 1998, the American Film Institute (AFI) listed The Sound of Music as the fifty-fifth greatest American movie of all time, and the fourth greatest movie musical. In 2001, the United States Library of Congress selected the film for preservation in the National Film Registry, finding it "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

I had the pleasure of spending an afternoon visiting Marie Von Trapp at her home in Stowe, Vt., in July 1968. She was an amazing woman and very strong. We hiked up a mountaintop to show me, my mother and sister the gravesite of the Baron Von Trapp. I was 15 years old and was totally out of breath when we got there and she made the climb without any problem. I'll never forget that experience!

[@1HappyGal1]

I visit the Trapp Lodge regularly. I absolutely love it there, their family and story has such wonderful values. You were blessed to have met her. We've met Johannes' son, Sam. Also, a wonderful person!!

[@Charlie84417]

1HappyGal1 The Trapp Family Lodge was a beautiful place--I hope to revisit it again someday. I particularly remember all the flowers. When Maria came into the room to greet us she was carrying a flower pot with a large colorful floral arrangement--I think she was taking it out to her garden. I remember her introducing us to Johannes in the parking lot after our walk--he appeared to be a young college student to me at that point. Such a nice day--and hard to believe it was now over 45 years ago.

[@1HappyGal1]

You truly had a once in a lifetime experience. What a special memory. They have done a lot with the property and have a beautiful flower garden. I'll try to post a picture for you. Forgive me if it doesn't work...I don't like all this electronic stuff much (would rather be living the simple life in VT - not that it's easy, but it is simpler I believe - maybe someday!!)

[@Ignorance96]

Yodeling is meant to exaggerate the "break" between registers. Julie had been classically trained for most of her life and had really blended together her break. Her muscle memory amd conditioning literally made yodeling impossible. Edit: I was speaking in hyperbole. Technically she could learn to yodel, but it would have been very difficult given the specific training she was brought up on.

My very small claim to fame is my father was a lab tech in the same hospital that Maria was in when she passed. He heard the announcement of her passing while he was in the lab. Small world. Be kind to each other.

[@maloriemccarthy308]

She got lymph nodes in her voice box and the doctors ruined her singing voice in surgery.... what a shame! Still love her!! ❤️❤️❤️

The actress meets the real von trapp. She maybe old but her voice is still brilliant. Rest in peace first generation von trapps.

[@manuelorozco7760]

This still lands in my recommendation feed in 2024! It’s so surreal seeing Julie and the real life Maria in the same video

[@mlchc9004]

Maria VonTrapp was amazing even very much so the beautiful Julie Andrews who portrayed her in the classic epic movie of the SOM

When I was a teenager I mowed Maria Von Trapp's lawn in Stowe VT. If there was any yodeling going on, I didn't hear it over the sound of the mower.

[@targetedindividual7931]

Hope you were well paid. Huge ass lawn.

[@rvpstudioscanada3991]

WOW! This is *AMAZING FOOTAGE* you got here! *THANK YOU SO MUCH* for sharing!

[@dinorahdarby4499]

Sharing your talent makes the world a brighter place to be. Celebrate you and I will too!

[@sunshineangelcake]

This vid demands more likes...Maria's voice is extraordinary.

[@hwannietessier797]

I just discovered this video. This is really precious! They are both Legends in their own way! Love them! Beautiful people, beautiful voice! ❤❤❤

[@DrMAHMMuseumAtHomeinMusic]

Yes, beautiful people, beautiful voice 🤩🤩🤩👍🙏💝

[@bmcgoo6027]

Julie Andrews ... talented, and beautiful. Don't forget the genius director of Sound of Music, and West Side Story, and The Haunting, and the first Star Trek film - Robert Wise.

[@ADDAuntDawnDisorder]

Oh my goodness! My all time favorite movie EVER!!! My little girl has been watching since she was 2 years old & still loves it 10 years later!

[@Minyadagniriel]

That was amazing! :D These ladies have major class! I looked up to Julie when I was in choir :)

[@smallstudiodesign]

The story’s all the more poignant, powerful & legendary because it’s based on the truth.

[@ebonyivory283]

Wow both are great singer's I salute them it's a legendary movie the sound of music

[@AnnabellaRedwood]

Awwww that was delightful. A real tonic on a blah day.

[@OMGmynameisLILI]

This is the most beautiful video in the world

[@marylizabetha]

This is absolutely wonderful. Two women I genuinely admire

[@Kalamabbfan]

Many years ago, in the late 60's or early 70's Maria von Trapp came and spoke at our university. It was amazing and she has an amazing life story 'after' the escape. One thing she mentioned is that in her travels she once met some 'head hunters' and asked them what was the most 'tastey' part of the human body, and they told here it was the forearm. That talk was a LONG time ago, but I have never forgotten it.

[@BlakeBarbieDoll]

Julie Andrews has one of the most beautiful gifts of all time. I LOVE her voice.

[@monillafamily8691]

She is one of the greatest human being ever stepped in the history of our humanity and probably the last of the great broads.

[@florenciafigueroa6455]

What a Great blessing to sing🎤🎤❣️

[@charisselachica]

Absolute queens Julie Andrews is a role model for me what an beautiful and talented actress

[@michaelsuarez1126]

When both legends collided. Lovely!

[@DrMAHMMuseumAtHomeinMusic]

Yes, lovely 🤩🤩🤩👍🙏💝

[@joc_tamai]

Anyone else think that Maria playing with Julie's scarf was just so adorable And then she starts to back away at one point (unconsciously? Idk) and Julie just gently pulls her back with a smile and sweet voice ugh they're so cute

[@MadKingOfMadaya]

*_Maria Von Trapp looks immensely majestic. She has these large cheeks and a perfect hairline and the hair thickness is astounding for her age._*

[@chubiwan.kenobi2023]

Omg the real froline maria's voice🤗

[@_livie]

I love Julie's voice so much

[@bryanrawlinson124]

Seriously who thumbs downs Maria Von Trapp, or Julie Andrews for that matter.

[@YaneMarieSleppy]

*This had me in tears.* Love it!
