Signed CD of Situation Station

Join Christina Courtin and The Knights to celebrate the release of Christina's newest record Situation Station. As Christina weaves together her dual worlds, the singer-songwriter and classically trained violinist guides listeners through somber plains and heartbreak, all the while surrounding them with warmth, joy, and hope. With its stark vocals and rich arrangements, Situation Station seeks to stir the same depth of emotion in others that Courtin has imbued in each of her album’s songs. The evening features a live performance of Situation Station by Christina Courtin herself, and The Knights, a versatile Brooklyn-based chamber orchestra. Proceeds benefit the mission and programs of The Knights, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization.

Please join us as we enter Bruch’s enchanting landscapes in his Eight Pieces, march down a hot dusty road with Stravinsky’s Soldier’s Tale and learn how music can help us fly with Judd Greenstein's Be There. With devilish dissonances, mischievous melodies, and radical rhythms we will learn how composers can bring us on exciting adventures to different places.
