At this point, I&#8217;ve been in or played for The Sound of Music so many times I think I could play the music blindfolded.  Tonight was the first time I&#8217;ve played it with an orchestra, though.  It was heavenly!  There are definitely parts where the piano is featured, but there are lots and lots of parts where if I don&#8217;t play all the notes on a particular page it&#8217;s no biggie &#8211; which is good, because there are lots and lots of parts where I just couldn&#8217;t play all the notes on the page.

I was disappointed to not see it in the theater, but hey, I got the DVD in the mail the same day it was released in the stores, so, yay!  I almost didn&#8217;t watch it tonight, because the sleeve they sent it in had a running time of 4 hours and 40 minutes listed, but it was only 2 hours and 40 minutes.
