My Favorite Things played on chromatic harmonica.

"My Favorite Things" is a song from the musical The Sound of Music.

The Sound of Music version

The music for "My Favorite Things" was composed by Richard Rodgers, and the lyrics were written by Oscar Hammerstein II. In the musical, the lyrics to the song are a litany of things that Maria likes, such as "raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens." These are the things she selects to fill her mind with when times get "bad' and "sad". They then become cognitive-centering devices, objects of meditation and inspiration.

The wintertime imagery of some of the lyrics has made "My Favorite Things" a popular song during the Christmas season, and it often appears on holiday-themed albums and compilations, although in the show and movie it is sung during a summer thunderstorm.
