Trapp Family Singers

The Trapp Family Singers were a renowned Austrian singing family who gained worldwide fame for their performances and recordings of folk and sacred music. Led by the matriarch, Maria Trapp, their harmonious voices and communal singing reflected their strong family bond. Their story became widely known through the 1959 musical and film "The Sound of Music," which was inspired by their real-life experiences fleeing Austria during World War II and eventually settling in the United States. The family continued performing into the mid-20th century, sharing their musical legacy and inspiring audiences globally with their artistry and resilience.
