Real Life Great Grandchildren Of The Von Trapp Family Perform A Breathtaking Version Of ‘Edelweiss’
This remarkable display features the great-grandchildren of the authentic Von Trapp Family, who unexpectedly visited an office in Columbus, Ohio and delivered this outstanding spontaneous concert. The unplanned musical showcase from relatives of an incredibly renowned musical dynasty was reportedly performed "from pure generosity." The recording was shared by "FIGBAR FILMS" on their YouTube platform, where the channel proprietor clarified the actual circumstances of that day.
"Everyone should understand these 'young performers' appeared at my workplace in Columbus Ohio, performed for our staff from pure generosity...this was entirely a spontaneous presentation. I work with a video production business...someone picked up a camera and recorded this. They were extremely modest and wonderful individuals. I'm very pleased people can view this and be so moved by it. I've been reached by the von Trapp great-grandchildren who provided a link in this video's description about their current projects. They completely support this video being shared and are moved by all the positive reactions and comments."
These talented vocalists are the great-grandchildren of Georg von Trapp and step-great-grandchildren of Maria, Georg's second spouse. Sofia, Melanie, Amanda, and August von Trapp previously functioned together as a quartet for more than ten years under the name the von Trapps, but they have now chosen to follow separate musical paths though "They still make special guest appearances with friends and artists."
The Trapp Family (Also Known As The Von Trapp Family) was an Austrian singing group led by Georg von Trapp, a previous naval officer. The family gained recognition in Austria between the first and second World Wars. The family eventually moved to the USA to find permanent safety from the worsening conditions in Austria during World War II.
Their compelling story became the foundation for Two German Films and Rodgers and Hammerstein's Broadway musical "The Sound of Music." Maria Franziska, the final living member of the original seven Trapp children, passed away at 99 in 2014.
