Tutor Arrives: At the start of a new school year, Baron Captain Georg von Trapp's (1880-1947) daughter Maria (1914-2014) was suffering from heart issues connected with contracting scarlet fever five years before. The issue caused her much fatigue and made it difficult to attend school full-time. In October, Georg inquired with the Ursuline High School to see if they had any qualified students to assist; the Director recommended 'Gustl' Maria Augusta Kutschera* (1905-1987), a fifth-grade teacher at the local Nonnberg Abbey ('Gustl' is short for Augusta). Gustl had recently graduated from the State Teacher's College of Progressive Education. Georg was grateful for the recommendation and agreed to hired Gustl; she came to Villa von Trapp as a live-in school tutor for his daughter Maria.

*Gustl was the basis for the "Maria" character in "The Sound of Music", which was inspired by Gustl's 1949 book, "The Story of The Trapp Family Singers".
1965 Hollywood Movie Version:

Similarities - When Gustl arrived at Villa von Trapp, the children did ranged in age from 5 to near 16.

Differences - In the movie, the widowed Baron Captain Georg von Trapp hired Gustl's character 'Maria' as a nanny for all of his children in 1936; in real life, 'Maria' was known as Gustl (short for her middle name Augusta) and came to Villa von Trapp as a school tutor for his 3rd daughter, Maria (12), ten years earlier in 1926.

​​​​Yacht Captain Request: After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.... After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.... After the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire....Although busy with his Rhein-Donau-Express shipping company [see year 1921] and at home chicken-egg farm [see year 1925], Baron Captain Georg von Trapp accepted a request by Mr. Hankey (an American) to captain and sail Mr. Hankey’s yacht from Bremerhaven, Germany to Genoa, Italy.

​Summer, Camping in Istria & Dalmatia: The Italian WWI blacklist/ban within Istria and Dalmatia* for WWI Central Power military personal had finally been lifted after fourteen years [see year 1914 and year 1918]. After WWI and the fall of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (on the Central Power side), the Empire's coastal territories were annexed to Italy (on the Allies side). Italy’s blacklist had previously prevented Baron Captain Georg von Trapp (1880-1947) from returning to his birth place in Dalmatia and his prior home & life with his 1st wife Agathe Whitehead** (1891-1922) in Istria [see years 1880 - 1922]. Georg took the opportunity with the lifting of the blacklist, to organize a sailing and camping trip for his family; this would help reunite his children with their past and to introduce his second wife, 'Gustl' Maria Augusta Kutschera (1905-1987), to his prior life. At the time his children with Agathe Whitehead ranged in age from

​​Salzburg Schools & Music: The von Trapp children were now all of school age, the girls enrolled into the Ursuline convent school and the boys the local public school. When his children were home, Baron Captain Georg von Trapp (1880-1947) sang with his children, old navy songs & ballards accompanied by his guitar. He also taught his son Rupert (####-####) & daughter Maria (####-####) how to play the accordion, his daughter Agathe (####-####) the guitar and daughter Johanna (####-####) & Maria (####-####) the violin. Musical evenings were a daily occurrence practising marches and folk dances; Georg played first violin, Rupert or Maria played the accordion, Agathe accompanied with guitar, with later Johanna joining with second violin. This arrangement is called "The Schrammel Quartet" - a Viennes specialty.
1965 Hollywood Movie version:

Similarities - Georg did play the guitar. 

Differences - In the movie, Georg did not initially make music with his children; in real life, music was central to much of the time he spent with his children. He taught them songs and how to play musical instruments, as well as provided them with formal music lessons.

​​Captain's Whistle:Baron Captain Georg von Trapp (1880-1947) did use a captain's whistle to call his children, with each child having a different whistle sound.

1965 Hollywood Movie version:

Similarities - Georg did use a whistle to call his children; he learned the skill as a Navy Captain. 

Differences - However, the whistle was used for practicality & fun, the estate they lived on was quite large and the whistle was a convenient way of calling his children when needed. Unlike the movie, his children enjoyed having their own whistle sound and saw it as a sign of affection from their loving father, the Captain. 

Chicken-egg Farming: While still a Director for his Rhein-Donau-Express shipping company [see year 1921], Baron Captain Georg von Trapp (1880-1947) also embarked on chicken-egg farming, located on part of the Villa von Trapp property. He sold eggs to the local Salzburg hotels. It lasted for several years, ending when a chicken flu epidemic killed off most of the birds.

1965 Hollywood Movie version:​ N/A - not mentioned in the movie

Music in the Mountains: The summer of 1926, Prince Karl Auersperg (####-####) and wife Priness Eleonore von Breunner (####-####)(Agathe's Uncle & Aunt), with their children, arranged a three-week camping trip for his extended family in the "Die Nideren Tauern" Austrian mountain range. He invited Baron Captain Georg von Trapp (1880-1947) with his four eldest children, Frank Whitehead (####-####) (Agathe's brother) with his wife & son, Countess Johanna von Auersperg (####-####) (Agathe's cousin) with her husband, Count Rudolf Meran (####-####) & their children and the Auersperg's music teacher, Mr. Mastalier. Making music played an internal part to the camping itinerary, Georg played the violin, Karl the accordion, Mr. Mastalier the guitar and all the rest participated in song. This experience had a long last effect on the von Trapp child, who when they returned to Salzburg. As his eldest daughter Agathe wrote in her autobiography "... the music remained and became part of our repertoire. With Rupert on the accordion, Papa on the first violin, Maria on second violin and me on guitar. We made music whenever we could find time!" 
1965 Hollywood Movie version:​

Differences - Georg and his 1st wife Agathe Whitehead's family introduced music, musical training and group music making to all their seven children from small on. Their eldest daughter wrote in her autobiography, "In the play and film, it appears that our second mother was solely responsible for teaching us the joys of music. In reality, not only did we play instruments and sing with Papa in our house in Salzburg before we had even met our second mother, but we also sang very early in our lives at the [Zee am See house] during WWI, when Mama [Baroness Agathe Whitehead (1880-1922)], Gromi [Grandmother Countess Agathe von Bruenner (####-1945)] and the Aunts sang and played piano."

Spring 1935 - Musical Coach & Director

In Spring 1935 Reverend Dr. Franz Wasner (age 31) started coaching the von Trapp musicians on Saturdays, at their home in Aigen, Salzburg, Austria. The Reverand had studied ecclesiastical law and recently graduated (in November, 1934) with a doctorate in cannon law from Rome, Italy. During the week, he was the Assistant Director at Seminarium Majus, in Salzburg, where he taught Gregorian chant. Eventually he would become the family's full-time Musical Director.

 Rupert (20), Agathe (19), Maria (17), Werner (16), Hedwig (15),  Johanna (12) and Martina (11). His two daughters with Gustl were too young for the trip and stayed in Aigen, Illi (3) and Lorli (1). Georg charted the cargo vessel  'Archimede' and travelled around Istria, Dalmatia (stopping in Zadar, Georg's birth place - see Winter 1932) & Bocche de Cattaro. Georg also took the time to give sailing and kayaking instructing to his children; he envisioned practising to one day ​take his family on an around-the-world sailing trip.​ The family also played music together throughout their vacation.
*Prior to WWI, Istria and Dalmatia were areas within the Austro-Hungarian Empire's territories. After WWI, it was annexed to Italy. After WWII, it was incorporated into a new country Yugoslavia. After the fall of the communism, the areas became part of the new country of Croatia.

**Agathe Whitehead had passed away in 1922 after complications with scarlet fever, contracted by caring for her sick children.​

*In 1938, as political refugees, the family was forced to abandon their home and belongs to seek asylum in the U.S.A. After WWII, when the family received their house back during reparations, they sold it to an Order of monks. In 2008, it was leased and opened as a hotel. In the movie, ‘Villa von Trapp’ was filmed at Schloss Frohnburg, a 17th century country house, now the Mozarteum Music Academy.
**Baron Captain Georg Riiter (Knight) von Trapp was elevated to Baron from Knight with his 1918 'Maria Theresa Military Order', awarded during WWI by the Austro-Hungarian Imperial & Royal War Navy; he was officially granted his title in 1924, when he submitted the proper paperwork and application. This entitled him, his wife and his descendants to carry the title Baron and Baroness.
​1965 Hollywood Movie version:

Similarities- Baron Captain Georg von Trapp was a widowed, WWI Navy hero with seven children, living near Salzburg, Austria.

Differences - In the movie, his children's name's were changed, as well as the birth order of his first two children; in the movie, the eldest is Liesl von Trapp (real name Agathe von Trapp & actually the second child, eldest daughter), Friedruich von Trapp (real name Rupert von Trapp & first child, eldest son), Lousia von Trapp (Maria von Trapp), Kurt von Trapp (Werner von Trapp), Brigitta von Trapp (Hedwig von Trapp), Marta von Trapp (Johanna von Trapp) and Gretl von Trapp (Martina von Trapp). Also, a key difference was Georg's portrayal as stiff, distant and strict; in reality, his children all describe him as loving, humorous, their 'rock' in the family and highly engaged & interested in his children's lives.

The family raised money for food and sent care packages with clothing, to struggling post-WWII Austria. The efforts were also in response to a plea for help that came in a letter from American Major General Harry J. Collins, of the 42nd Rainbow Division. He was stationed in Austria and described "acute shortages, hunger, and general broken-down conditions". By 1950 the family had shipped over 275,000 pounds of material to Austria. They heard news back from the Salzburg and Vienna distribution centers that their efforts often meant the difference between life and death for the recipients. The family was honored with several awards in recognition of their advocacy and charitable efforts.

1934 - Lotte Lehmann's Encouragement

By 1934 the von Trapp family had lost a large part of their wealth due to a global depression and a banking failure. Their fortune had consisted of monies inherited from the children's great-grandfather, Robert Whitehead, (from his invention of the torpedo) and the other half from Georg's successful decade-long shipping businesses on the Rhein-Danue Rivers (1919-1930). To stabilize their financial situation Georg worked on several endeavors including writing his WWI memoir, lecturing, and exploring some engineering ideas. As a result, the family was able to stay at their home in Aigen, near Salzburg, Austria, but they took on boarders to help cover expenses. In the summer of 1934 the famous German/Austrian opera singer, Lotte Lehmann, visited Villa Trapp and the family entertained her with their music. She was so impressed and touched by the family's performance that she told them, "You have gold in your throats. You are not allowed to keep this for yourselves, you have to share your voice with people. This is something so beautiful, they will go home with filled souls.". Georg later recalled, "We were astonished when she seemed seriously interested. She told us we were great artists whose the world should hear. I thought she was joking." [October 23, 1942 The Gallup Independent, New Mexico]. It was Lotte who encouraged them to enter a local Folk Singing Competition.

Prior to 1934 - Music As A Pastime

The von Trapps came from a long musical tradition. Baron Captain Georg von Trapp and Agathe Whitehead von Trapp (the parents to the first seven von Trapp children) played several instruments and made music a part of their family's daily life. Their children also had formal musical training starting at a young age. In 1922 Agathe passed away of Scarlet Fever. As the children grew older Georg personally taught Rupert and Maria the accordion, Agathe the guitar, and Johanna the violin. From instructors, Martina and Hedwig learned the piano and Werner learned the cello and clarinet. Together they formed a small family Quartet consisting of Georg as first violin, Johanna as second violin, Rupert or Maria on accordion, and Agathe on guitar. The family loved making music together and did so regularly. In 1927 he married his second wife Maria Augusta Kutschera. In her youth she had received musical training as part of the Austrian youth group the Neuland. By 1931 two more children were born into the family. The expanding family continued the tradition of making music together, singing at Mass and regularly entertaining guests, friends, and extended family with song.

1934 - Folk Singing Competition in Salzburg

Encouraged by the famous opera singer Lotte Lehmann, on September 1 & 2, 1934, the von Trapp family competed in a folk song competition attended to by audiences "filled beyond capacity" at the restaurant “Elektrischer Aufzug” (Elektic Elevator) on Moenchsberg Street, Salzburg, Austria. About 30 groups took part, competing in different categories. The von Trapp family won a prize in the multiple voice category. See 1934 newspaper article. As a result of their prize, the family was invited to sing on the radio several times during 1935. 

[NOTE: Although the competition took place in Salzburg,  it was not held at the famous summer Salzburg Festival as some sources have stated.]
