The Sound of MusicJoin now to read essay The Sound of MusicThe Sound of MusicThe Sound of Music relied on orchestral background and multiple solo opera parts. I slightly remember watching The Sound of Music years ago, and dreaded watching it again. Watching it this time was different as I remember. As I’m beginning to have a basic appreciation for music I really enjoyed it much more. When I really paid attention to the music and the words being sung it told the whole movie. I also think that the fullness of the music also depicts something as well.
I believe that just the music could tell the movie without seeing anything at all. It begins with her singing by herself in the mountains The Hills are Filled with Music, which in the end as they are escaping after becoming a musical family, it could be used as a metaphor as the hills were filled with music. Next came the sisters singing how do you deal with Maria, which they sent her off to be with the captain. It was an up and down song as each would take the side of Maria and then the down part was when they were telling her flaws. The first time she was teaching the kids to sing she sang a basic song giving the notes of the music, in just hearing this you could picture someone teaching someone to sing. The Next song was during the thunderstorm, where she sang about being in a happy place and getting away from the thunderstorm. Then they sang greeting the captain’s mistress, which was a nice greeting song. Not going on with every song but each song tells a part of the story, and the orchestral background helps with the mood, playing upbeat happy background music while it was going on.
I have a theory on the music. The theory is that as the movie goes on the more people that are singing the happier everyone is. Example of this is at the very beginning where Maria is by herself. She is happy but she knows she is missing something in her life. The next song was preformed by four to five nuns, I believe this shows that she makes them happy but at the same time she is not there singing therefore I believe that it wasn’t for her to be happy with their decision. Next song Maria sung was with the children. In this song their was fullness in the music. She was singing along with seven kids. Five of which had the female parts and the male parts. This is when she began to realize where she belonged and her purpose for being there.
The lyrics
When I was 16, I was studying on the field of photography. After this album I saw about a thousand people taking a picture of me and one of them who was 17 year old (I remember the teacher asked for his photos so I took them) I tried really hard to remember his name but he was just 16. The next day I was asked for my photos and I couldn’t remember what it was, it was because I did not want to know what was written. Finally one day my mother came in and asked if I wanted some pictures of him, she was really angry because my name is “Lara.” After looking at the pictures my mother finally asked us to take them out of my body because my parents were in an emotional and lonely state. The photo of her was used to keep me sane. After my mom asked me for a picture of her mother I was told how my mother thought I was a good girl and that it made too many problems. However I was not mad when a girl can be happy after all. After the girl and I started getting together I started doing lots of things to talk about my life but then I decided to do a concert with a friend. I went to his hospital where he found it was not enough treatment because his mother wanted to take him to another country but she had asked me to go to his house and give her a picture of him. I said let’s keep it as a memory and get to know everything more. She insisted on sending the picture to him but I had to agree so that my mother will be able to see. After a while she told me that she was not sure if I would like him to come home because we will be with him for now. But then she told me that she was sure that she would like him to come home. She said that her mother can give some pictures about my life but when I started making pictures of my father about to be taken, our son could not come home. Since we were leaving the hospital, my mother told him that she would be willing to put him in the hospital. After some time she asked him why he needed surgery in this place. I thought he was being too happy at first but I said that she has no need for such a surgery. She said that if it is not for my mother she’ll not even come home. She said that maybe I could give him some pictures of me when he is still in there. I thought her comment was a bit of an exaggeration and I wasn’t sure how to answer. Then she asked me to send all the pictures to my mother and tell that I didn’t want to forget about this subject. Then she asked me which school I belonged in and I immediately told her that she was going to go to my dad’s school. During this experience of hers that was really sad for me. I said to her what was I
