Library of Congress and National Tour of ‘The Sound of Music’ Announce First-of-Its-Kind CollaborationIn a first-of-its-kind collaboration, the Library of Congress and the national tour of “The Sound of Music” are presenting “Inside the Vault,” a new traveling and virtual display that offers a rare look at the creation of one of the most beloved musicals of all time. Launching in conjunction with the North American tour of “The Sound of Music,” “Inside the Vault” invites audiences to explore original archival materials from the Library of Congress’ Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein II collections that reveal how the show’s iconic songs were conceived, developed and brought to life. A rich multimedia experience – including video, printed materials and digital resources – highlights the creative process behind six legendary musical numbers written by Rodgers and Hammerstein: “Climb Ev’ry Mountain,” “Do-Re-Mi,” “Edelweiss,” “My Favorite Things,” “So Long, Farewell” and “The Sound of Music.” The display and video resources will be made available through dozens of theaters nationwide.
