The real-life Von Trapp Family’s great-grandchildren stunned everyone with a breathtaking impromptu performance of “Edelweiss” at an office in Columbus, Ohio. Captured by FIGBAR FILMS, this magical moment was shared online, where the channel explained the touching backstory. The relatives of the iconic musical family sang for the staff “out of the goodness of their hearts,” showcasing both their humility and extraordinary talent.
The singers—Sofia, Melanie, Amanda, and August von Trapp—are the great-grandchildren of Georg von Trapp and the step-great-grandchildren of Maria von Trapp. Once a renowned quartet under the name “The von Trapps,” they now pursue individual careers but occasionally reunite for special performances.
The Von Trapp Family’s story is legendary. Led by former naval commander Georg von Trapp, the Austrian family gained fame as singers between the World Wars before fleeing to the U.S. during World War II. Their inspiring journey became the foundation for The Sound of Music, one of the most beloved musicals of all time.
