SOUND OF MUSIC Do Re Mi In early May, the empty stage of South Eugene was filled with The Sound of Music as light broke through the stained glass windows of an Austrian abbey upon a group of chanting nuns. Over 8,000 people witnessed another Rag- ozzino success and thrilled to the heart- warming story of the Trapp family. Every- one fell in love with the seven children, the simple and sincere Maria, and the digni- fied and restrained Captain Von Trapp. Lively supporting characters added to the spirit of the musical, as did such memorable songs as My Favorite Things, Sixteen Going on Seventeen, and Climb Ev'ry Mountain. Maria, counseled by the Mother Abbess to see more of the world, becomes the gover- ness of the Trapp children. Bringing music back into their lives, she changes the chil- dren from regimented automatons to lively and talented imps. Maria is at- first confused by the cold, military facade of the captain, but she soon falls in love with him. The children love her and approve of the mar- riage, but the future of the family is not secure. Hitler has annexed Austria, and Captain Von Trapp is called into the serv- ice of the Reich. Steadfastly loyal to his beloved Austria, the captain cannot bring himself to support the aggressors. As the curtain closes, the family is fleeing over the Alps to neutral Switzerland, aided by the nuns of Maria's abbey.
