About this product

Product Information

Shot in Salzburg against the majestic Bavarian Alps, THE SOUND OF MUSIC is considered one of the greatest screen musicals ever made. Winner of five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director (Robert Wise), the film, based on a real family and their true events, tells the story of a young postulate, Maria (Julie Andrews), who, after proving too high-spirited for the Mother Abess and other nuns, is sent off to work as a governess to seven unruly children. The Von Trapp family is run, in military style, by the seemingly cold-hearted Captain Von Trapp (Christopher Plummer), a lonely widowed naval officer. Seeing how badly he and his children need companionship, he proposes to the Baroness Schraeder (Eleanor Parker), a calculating, mutual friend of beloved family friend Max Detweiler (Richard Haydn). It is the baroness who soon realizes that it's Maria--with her warmth and love for the children--the captain really loves. It is nearly bliss for the newly formed family who loves to sing together--except for the cloud looming over their beloved Austrian horizon: Hitler is ascending to power, forcing Von Trapp to decide whether to join the Nazi party--which he loathes--or force his family to leave their home forever. One of the most memorable scores ever written (by Rodgers and Hammerstein) and breathtaking performances by Andrews, Plummer, and the seven children mark this classic as one of the world's most favorite films.

    Sound Volume LOW

    Visually, this is a clean reproduction that upscales well to 4k. The volume of the sound on this recording is intensely low, though. I had to crank up my amplifier (250W x 5 Parasound Halo A51) to get a reasonable level of musicality from the movie. Its a musical...I wanted to enjoy that aspect to new levels we didn't have when I was a kid, growing up with this movie on tv. The additional downside, is that as I approached reasonably hi sound levels, the static & hiss started to present itself. If you are buying this for a movie theatre experience on your home theatre system, or, if your television does not have strong volume output, you will likely be left wanting, and straining for the enjoyment you sought in purchasing it. If you are simply buying it to enjoy on the television with the kids, and you have a quality soundbar, or hi quality sound/volume on your t.v., then you will likely enjoy this recording on the purposes for which you purchase it.
