I'm not usually one to go about promoting CDs and such, but if you haven't checked out the Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata's 'The Hills Are Alive', I highly recommend it. They've done unique jazz/blues/country/funky covers and such of a bunch of Sound of Music stuff and - I can't begin to describe how incredible it is or just how it works.
Instead, go here
‘Sound of Music’ Tribute by Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata - NYTimes.com and check it out for yourself. You can listen to three complete songs on that site as well. Give Do Re Mi/ABC a listen. It's something else!
