The Hills Are Alive with the Kanneh-Masons
The Hills Are Alive with the Kanneh-Masons
Nottingham classical family the Kanneh-Masons visit Salzburg to walk in the footsteps of Austria's most famous musical family the Von Trapps - the inspiration behind Hollywood's The Sound of Music. For this one-off Christmas special, all nine members of the Kanneh-Masons, including mum Kadie and dad Stuart, visit the film's key locations and explore the incredible story of the Von Trapps. Having grown up watching the film every Christmas, the children - who like the Von Trapps are two brothers and five sisters - now perform their own arrangements of songs from the soundtrack, including Climb Every Mountain, My Favourite Things, Do Re Mi and Edelweiss
The Hills Are Alive with the Kanneh-Masons airs on BBC Two Wales at 9:20 AM, Sunday 29 December. (Subtitles, repeat, audio description.)
