RIP Christopher Plummer. This was a lovely version of the song. Thanks for posting it!
He was the real captain
@@daynacooper1163 the real Captain was actually Theodore Bikel
I agree 👍
Headcanon: Captain von Trapp uses guitar as one of his coping mechanisms after the death of his wife, and wrote Edelweiss in her memory. It's why he always seems to be emotionally repressing himself when he sings it, because he doesn't want to think about his dead wife and get upset in front of his children. Also, Liesl is the only one who knows that he wrote it for her mother, which is why she sings along in the 1964 film.
Ok but the audience sings along in the original movie. How do they know the lyrics?
@@marupozo3692 They hear the first verse of the song and are so moved by it they are able to repeat it. Kind of part of the magical non-realistic stuff that happens in musicals.
It’s not about his wife. It’s about his country. He is a real patriot.
He stopped singing when his wife died but the song is not about her.
And he’s emotional the first time because he realised that, with Maria, he’s able to sing again. And the second time because he knows that he can’t stay in the country that is his and that he loves so much anymore.
I think he hopes that the country won’t loose his identity because of nazism.
But i thought Edelweiss was a fictional anthem of Austria
@@lilou2530 When i take the context of the song out, i can imagine it like a holiday song
All these comments anew about Christopher Plummer. Can we take a minute to admire Stephen Moyer’s acting. You could feel his heart breaking in this song.
I was more a fan of his acting than his singing as Captain Von Trapp
Stephen Moyer is a very underrated actor and should be a huge movie star if he chose to be
Agree. Thinking about that too
I had never seen him before this. What a great looking man!
Carrie and Stephen were great in these roles ,but no one will ever be as good as the o.g”s Julie and Christopher
You know it was a stage musical before it was a film right?
Also, It's not Christopher's singing voice in the film. They dubbed him.
@@aDifferentJT -no I didn’t ,I thought it was the opposite
@@Ihdc1 -really ,now I’m kind of disappointed,cause I always thought it was really Christopher
Stephen was great. Carrie was not as bad as people think she was. The biggest problem was she wasn’t really taking much of the openings Stephen was giving her for them to have chemistry.
My childhood was blessed with many moments because of this very special musical. May Christopher fly high with the angels. A great performance.
So sad to hear the news. Beautiful tribute
The moment his voice broke with the timing of christopher plumming dying 😭😭😭
This was the final song that Rogers & Hammerstein wrote together, and I can't think of a better way for their partnership to end.
Fun fact: Christopher Plummer didn't sing in "The Sound of Music". A singer named Bill Lee did. But I understand the sentiment for this video.
In the early days of musical movies hardly anyone did sing himself or herself.
*Rodgers* and *Hammerstein* wrote the song for the Broadway production of Sound of Music in 1959. Simple guitar accompaniment to showcase Theodore Bikel's guitar playing ability.
It's the Captain's goodbye to Austria
That's the version I know as well. Saw this on Broadway many years ago and still listen to the original cast album. No one can sing Climb Every Mountain like the original Mother Superior. Goosebumps.
I like Edelweiss best when we hear it twice.
In fond remembrance of Sir Christopher Plummer.
May he rest in peace.
Thank you for posting this video.
My favorite role of his will always be as Captain Von Trapp.
Never knighted. Canadian not British. (but they should have made an exception 😉)
Much Love to a legend, Mr.Christoper Plumber!! One of the best ever musical shows!!
Stephen Moyer did a FANTASTIC job!!!!!
He was the best part of this version of the musical in my opinion
Lol, no. I love Stephen, but his singing here sucks. Laura Benanti and Christian Borle knocked it out of the park, along with Audra McDonald. Leave the singing to the professionals.
My upper Elementary music students are studying this musical right now! RIP Christopher Plummer. The legacy continues.
Rest In Peace Christopher😢😭
Bless my homeland forever ❤
This is one of my favorites from Sound Of Music
In Memorial for Christopher Plummer.
Christopher Plummer was the captain, BUT it was not him who sang it. Bill Lee sang/dubbed it because Plummer himself can't sing. FYI.
He had a really good voice in my opinion. I wish they hadn't dubbed him.
He could sing, I tried to find information why they dubbed him and I couldn't
what do you mean he can't sing? This is him singing Edelweiss before being dubbed, doesn't sound like a man who can't sing to me czcams.com/video/obEm1Mqm7C0/video.html
Love this performance by Stephen
The first time I watched this, I just saw Bill Compton (True Blood) the whole time LOL.
I really enjoyed watching the 2013 broadcast of The Sound of Music Live on Sky Arts
Looooove this!
Rest In peace Christopher Plummer!
My mom’s fave song. Sending this to her ASAP. TY!
this is just perfect, thank you
🔥💢🔥💥🔥Absolutely charming!! Thank from the heart for sharing!!🔥💥🔥💢🔥
I love this song!
The final Rodgers & Hammerstein collaboration.

In Memoriam:
Christopher Plummer (1929-2021)
Great play and music !
My favorite song
Best movie ever
This is also graceful.
Rip Christopher Plummer 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is very good. The British TV version of The Sound Of Music Live had Julian Ovenden singing "Edelweiss" - another fantastic actor/singer - but the scene there didn't have the whole family joining in like they do here and in the film, so it didn't have quite the same impact in my opinion
Christopher was dubbed in the movie, but here's him singing edelweiss with his own voice czcams.com/video/obEm1Mqm7C0/video.html I think it sounds lovely. May he rest in peace
♥️♥️♥️
I prefer this version in a higher key
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love😘😍😍😍😍😍😍

사운드오브뮤직 내 생의 최고의 인생영화였습니다...
I was not a fan of Carrie for this show (fine singing voice, but not for this kind of singing), but Stephen Moyer. I really enjoyed his singing.
I was more a fan of Carrie than Stephen. But to each their own
I got a new upload notification from CZcams and accidentally clicked on this video without seeing what it was. Not gonna lie, I was shocked to see the swastikas and a man onstage saying, "ladies and gentlemen..." before a crowd of applause. I thought I clicked on some pro-Nazi video lmao
I knew exactly what I was clicking on, but even still, just seeing a bunch of swastikas on display startled me
Yep I did not know that there was a nazi greeting from the ‘audience’ I was in shock for a few seconds
I am waiting for you guys to upload full sgows again 😐
Many people are, but they are showing a bit more patience than you.
Is that Christian Borle in the beginning?
Yes. Christian Borle played Uncle Max. I think it was smart that they packed this version full of really Noteable actors Christian Borle, Stephen Moyer, and Audra MacDonald. Since Carrie Underwood was less experienced as an actress. And Moyer, contrary to popular belief did a great job as Captain Von Trapp.
노래가 정말 좋아요 . 전 우석이, 준호, 승후, 준호, 최재희 선생님과 함께 합창을 하고 싶습니다 . 저는 제 6학년 때 담임 이경진 선생님을 위해서 말이죠 !!!!
Second! 💙💙💙👏👏
I, Josh learned that in elementary school.
In the future if Moyer is given another chance to do a musical on film or on TV, he has to improve his singing a little bit. But if i were to play Captain Von Trapp, i would be too timid to sing Edelweiss with the Nazi flags around me.
Preferred him in true blood as a vampire
Same as So Long, Farewell.
In my opinion I think both versions of the Edelweiss song is really better than this. This song made me cry when I was little but now it doesn't anymore. I'm so happy that Edelweiss is in the NBC version of The Sound Of Music 2014 version and the 1964 version. I think both of The Sound Of Music movies are awesome but RIP Christopher Plummer but I'm so happy that Carrie Underwood, Stephen Moyer, Ariane Reinhart, Ella-watts Gorman, Joe West, and every actor are my favorites ever since the 2014 version and the 1964 version and the characters from both movies are my favorite.
Stephen Moyer he take over replace be captain von Trapp family
Stephen moyer was not as good as christopher's but still pretty good. RIP christopher plummer. I will miss his presence in this world.
That wasn't actually Christopher's singing voice in the movie. He was dubbed by a guy named Bill Lee.
A very nice cover and the actor seems great but the emotion just isn’t there in his voice. At least the facial expressions carry it!
Plummer never actually sang the song - it was dubbed by a professional singer. I also prefer Stephen's version (as he can actually sing) to the original and that is crazy for even for me to say as I grew up the original.
He did actually sing it, it was recorded but they decided to dub it later. There’s a version of his original voice floating about on CZcams. Bill Lee sang it beautifully but there’s a charm to Plummer’s that fits in with the story that he hasn’t sang in years a little better in my opinion. His was a little more reserved and apprehensive.
This is not the original
First
Chris sang it better
Not Chris. It was Bill Lee's voice. Go read up, then you know.
i hated this live action whatever version. so terrible
The movie from 1965 is way better than this
Then watch that one
You do realize this is the stage version, yes? This comment makes you sound like a snob.
