Showtune Sunday: All about the glorious “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” from “The Sound of Music”
Walking back to my car last night after The Sound of Music at Hollywood Bowl, I could hear the woman in font of me singing Climb Ev’ry Mountain.
It’s the big, soaring ballad Mother Abbess sings to Maria at a key point in the film.
Thought I’d find as many versions as I could for today’s Sunday showtune.
Enjoy!!!

My favorite song from “The Sound of Music”. By far.
Scott K says:
And the incomparable Peggy Wood, as the Mother Abbess, did not sing Climb Ev’ry Mountain in the movie. Her voice was dubbed because Ms Wood could not reach the high notes the song required.

One of my favorites was Audra McDonald’s version from the live television production. Love her!
