It's a good one... We're finally talking about The Sound of Music! Join us for this chat about this Rodgers & Hammerstein masterpiece – both the 1959 stage version and the iconic 1965 film starring the one & only Julie Andrews.

We talk about:

- Contrasts: How the “marriage trope” intersects a political story about fascism and resistance

- The "Problem" of Maria: Maria von Trapp as both a redemptive figure and a prototypical “good German”

- Being Good: The theology of “Something Good,” and Catholic versus Protestant understandings of love and human worthiness

You’ll hear:

- Laura Benanti and Christian Boyle singing “No Way To Stop It” and “How Can Love Survive” from the 2013 NBC Soundtrack Recording

- Julie Andrews singing “I Have Confidence” and “Something Good” from the 1965 film soundtrack

- Peggy Wood singing “Climb Every Mountain” from the 1965 film.
