This is sound of Plummer singing "Edelweiss" in "The Sound of Music."
The Oscar-winning Canadian acting legend, Christopher Plummer, whose storied career encompassed stage, television and film, has died.
He was 91.
Plummer's wife Elaine says he died "peacefully" at his home in Connecticut after suffering a fall two weeks ago.
He was perhaps best-known for portraying Captain Georg von Trapp in "The Sound of Music," a part he never liked because he considered it wooden and one-dimensional.
Plummer won his first Academy Award at the age of 82 for his supporting role as a widower who comes out of the closet in "Beginners."
After the win in 2012, Plummer dismissed talk of retirement and joked about his own mortality.
