New 'Sound of Music' soundtrack album to include 40 unreleased songs including original Christopher Plummer recordings

Christopher Plummer's original recordings will finally debut as part of a new 'Sound of Music' soundtrack album featuring 40 previously unreleased songs.

The Sound of Music's 1965 movie soundtrack is set to be re-released on 1 December 2023,. with a wealth of previously unreleased songs — including actor Christopher Plummer's original recordings that weren't used in the film. Though Bill Lee's singing voice was dubbed over Plummer's in the Oscar-winning movie, the upcoming set includes Plummer himself performing songs from the film.
A new compilation album will feature remastered versions of iconic tunes from the Julie Andrews-starring movie. It will also include 40 previously unreleased tracks, instrumentals of each song, and 11 never-before-heard alternate takes.
Among the previously-unreleased songs are "The Little Dears" — a combination of "I Have Confidence" and "My Favorite Things" — and "New Governess," which wasn't used in the film.
