NYC: A LITTLE KNIGHT MUSIC (AND JULIE GOLD'S 60TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.)
Singer/ songwriter Julie Gold will celebrate her 60th Birthday at THE DUPLEX CABARET THEATRE (61 Christopher Street, NYC - 212-255-5438) on Wednesday, February 3rd at 7:00 pm with a special show 'A LITTLE KNIGHT MUSIC'! Julie Gold's life was changed when she composed the masterpiece "From a Distance" on her Knight piano. On February 20, 1991, Julie won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year. On February 21, 2014, Julie Gold extended an open invitation to her composer friends to spend one hour each at the newly-restored "Magic Knight" piano, to see if they could access some of the piano's magic. Her only requirements were that they did not bring any preexisting ideas, just an open mind and heart. Since then, dozens of Julie's friends have come from across the country to take her up on her offer, spending their own magical hour at the special instrument. Now, in celebration of Julie's 60th birthday, those composers will gather together for the first time to perform their songs, and thank Julie for the gift she has given them. There is a $25 cover plus a 2-drink minimum.
