The Sound of Music by Pizzicato Five was Pizzicato Five's third release in the United States under the label Matador Records. The album was Matador's second compilation of Pizzicato Five's previously released material, with an emphasis on their albums Bossa Nova 2001 and Overdose. The title "The Sound of Music" and the front cover slogan "music is organised by sound" are taken from a track on their then most recent album Romantique 96, though the song itself does not appear, and Romantique 96 is represented by only one track, a cover of Plastics' "Good".
