The Sound of Music (song)
“The Sound of Music” is the title song from the 1959 musical ''The Sound of Music.'' Its music was composed by Richard Rodgers to lyrics written by Oscar Hammerstein II.
== Background ==
One of Rodgers’s and Hammerstein’s favorite singers was the 1950s best-selling female vocalist, Patti Page. They approached Page and her manager Jack Rael to see if the duo would be interested in recording the title song, ''The Sound of Music,'' feeling that a well-known artist might give the Broadway musical a little “national” attention. Rael and Page agreed and recorded the song for Mercury Records at Fine Sound Studios in New York on November 16, 1959, the same day ''The Sound of Music'' opened on Broadway. Page’s version was recorded a full week before the original Broadway cast entered Columbia Studios to record the cast album. Page not only was thus the first person ever to record any song from the beloved musical but also even showcased the song in an episode of her self-titled nationally televised variety show sponsored by Oldsmobile, bringing national attention to the Rodgers and Hammerstein masterpiece.
