Legit Question 1


As he carefully mothered invention,

Was it really Frank Zappa’s intention

To be boldly courageous,

Or was he outrageous

For an ego that needed attention?

Werner von Trapp (21 December 1915 – 11 October 2007) was an Austrian singer and member of the Trapp Family Singers.  He was portrayed as the character Kurt in The Sound of Music.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Legit Question 2


Was Werner von Trapp at all hurt

When he learned that his character (Kurt)

Goes all evening long

Without his own song,

But is perky and precious and pert?
