In 1975, the family moved to Waitsfield, Vt.Įleonore von Trapp, who went by Lorli, was born on May 14, 1931, in Salzburg, Austria, on the border of Germany. They lived in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island, where she raised seven daughters, teaching them to cook, bake, garden, sew, knit, darn and make butter and ice cream from scratch. Campbell stopped touring in 1954 when she married Hugh David Campbell, a soccer coach and French teacher and later a headmaster. Campbell’s daughter Elizabeth Peters said, “and my mother lived as a teenager singing lead soprano, night after night after night, and toured much of the year, and it really shaped who she was.” “The life of singing on tour is one that involves an extraordinary amount of discipline and hard work,” Mrs. Maria Kutschera married the captain after Agathe von Trapp died. Georg von Trapp, and his first wife, Agathe Whitehead von Trapp, had the seven children who were the basis for the singing family. The movie won the Academy Award for best picture. “The Sound of Music” tells the story of an Austrian governess (played by Julie Andrews in the film) who marries her employer, a widower ( Christopher Plummer in the film), and then teaches his seven children music. All those works were based loosely on a 1949 autobiographical book by Maria von Trapp, who died in 1987. Campbell was a younger half sister to the von Trapp children who were depicted in “Die Trapp-Familie” (“The Trapp Family”), a 1956 West German film, and later in the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “The Sound of Music” and its 1965 movie adaptation. The death was confirmed by Day Funeral Home in Randolph, Vt. Eleonore von Trapp Campbell, the second daughter of Maria von Trapp, whose Austrian family was depicted in the stage musical and the beloved movie “The Sound of Music,” died on Oct.
