Watch Sound of Music Live! Star Audra McDonald Sing an Emotional ‘Climb Ev’ry Mountain’ at the Rock Center Tree Lighting

Performing live is a breeze for The Sound of Music Live! star Audra McDonald—even outside, in the middle of winter! (Hey, she doesn’t have five Tony Awards for nothin’.) The Broadway favorite sang a moving rendition of Mother Abbess’ signature song “Climb Ev’ry Mountain” at the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting on December 4, and if this gorgeous performance is any indication of what’s to come, she’s more than ready to bring it in The Sound of Music Live! telecast tonight, December 5.
