The Sound of Music was a huge hit in 1959 for Rodgers & Hammerstein and a highlight in the remarkable career of Mary Martin. The book by Howard Lindsay and Russel Crouse was based on Maria von Trapp's autobiography. It's a rather cloying story that involves nuns, Nazis, and seven cute kids, but it has pleased audiences for years. Oscar Hammerstein II, Richard Rodgers.

Richard Charles Rodgers (June 28, 1902 – December 30, 1979) was an American composer of music, with over 900 songs and 43 Broadway musicals, leaving a legacy as one of the most significant composers of 20th century American music. He is best known for his songwriting partnerships with the lyricists Lorenz Hart and Oscar Hammerstein II. His compositions have had a significant impact on popular music.

Leland Hayward and Richard Halliday had the idea to ask Rodgers & Hammerstein to provide a few new songs to go along with the madrigals, to make the play feel more modern to the 1958 audiences. Well, we know what happened – Rodgers & Hammerstein felt an entirely new score would be more appropriate, and said that if everyone could wait for them to finish FLOWER DRUM SONG, they would be happy to join the team of Lindsay & Crouse, who were writing the play, and craft a musical. The result was THE SOUND OF MUSIC.
