The hills are still alive with that totally timeless sound, you know — “the songs they have sung for a thousand years.”
The sound may be timeless, but it’s also been updated since 1965, which is when the blockbuster film “The Sound of Music” made famous a small library of classic songs — from “Do-Re-Mi” to “Climb Every Mountain,” not to mention that jazzy one about raindrops and kittens — along with the unlikely story of the stunningly harmonious von Trapp family and their adventures during World War II.
