A host of Broadway luminaries are gathering at NYU Skirball Center July 18 to celebrate and honor the late Tony-winning composer Steven Lutvak, who died last year at the age of 64. The concert coincides with what would have been the Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder composer's 65th birthday.

Among the roster of artists performing at the event are Broadway Inspirational Voices, Crystal Monee Hall, Bryce Pinkham, Catherine Walker, Scarlett Strallen, Catherine Porter, Lori Wilner, and Jenna Pastuszek. The concert will feature songs from A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, Lutvak's albums Ahead of My Heart and The Time It Takes, and some never-before heard works-in-progress.

Admission is free, but reservations are encouraged via Tickets.NYU.edu.

Lutvak made his Broadway debut with A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder in 2014, for which he supplied the music and co-wrote the lyrics with Robert L. Freedman. The musical won the Drama League, Outer Critics Circle, Drama Desk, and Tony Awards for Best Musical. Over his long career, he also received the Kleban Award for Lyric Writing for the Theater, the Fred Ebb Award for Songwriting for the Theater alongside Freedman, the American Theatre Wing's Jonathan Larson Grant, the Johnny Mercer Foundation's Emerging American Songwriter Award, two Bistro Awards, three MAC Awards, and multiple ASCAP Awards. In his later years, Mr. Lutvak worked as an adjunct professor at his alma mater, the New York University Graduate Musical Theater Writing Program.
