Sound of music: family scrapbook - fred bronson

The Sound of Music is firmly embedded in the DNA of a generation.

But what was it like to be part of all this? For seven children and young adults, the summer of 1964 was a magical one, spent in Salzburg, Austria, filming.

The Sound of Music: Family Scrapbook tells their story - both during the filming and once the movie was released.

It features hundreds of photographs and memorabilia they have cherished and preserved over the years, including letters home - even a ticket to the world premiere.

If you ever dreamed of marching round the fountains singing 'Do Re Mi', or dressing in a playsuit made from curtains, you will love this enchanting story of how seven boys and girls became a family - and how they kept that closeness for over 50 years.

This anniversary edition contains rare photographs and memorabilia from the personal archives of the children.

Also includes feature spreads on each of the 'children': Charmian Carr (Liesl), Nicholas Hammond (Friedrich), Heather Menzies (Louisa), Duane Chase (Kurt), Angela Cartwright (Brigitta), Debbie Turner (Marta), and Kym Karath (Gretl).
