Great-Grandchildren of Baron & Maria von Trapp Perform With Pink Martini!
Features Wayne Newton & Jack Hanna, Charmian Carr, & The Chieftains!
Pink Martini represents the first major international release by the four sensational singing great-grandchildren of Baron & Maria von Trapp, the real-life subjects of The Sound of Music.
Fifteen songs from all over the world, from Japan, Sweden and Rwanda to France and Ireland. World-famous Irish supergroup The Chieftains appears on August von Trapp's original song "Thunder".
The legendary Wayne Newton leads a rousing version of "Lonely Goatherd" with help from Columbus Zoo Director and regular late-night talk show guest Jack Hanna!
In a duet that crosses the threshold of fantasy and reality, Charmian Carr (the actress who played Liesl in The Sound of Music) sings a touching version of "Edelweiss".
Sofia, Melanie, Amanda, and August von Trapp are the actual great-grandchildren of Baron & Maria von Trapp, made famous by the 1965 film The Sound of Music. These siblings (ages 18-25) have been singing together for 12 years, and have toured all over the world in concert. Drawn into the magical orbit of Thomas Lauderdale, they have been frequent guest performers with Pink Martini. This delightful new collaboration features Pink Martini's beloved "little orchestra" fronted by the beautiful crystalline four-part harmonies of the singing siblings, traveling through a wonderland of Lauderdale's brilliant arrangements.
