The foundation will hold a gala in New York City to pay tribute to Andrews and celebrate the 45th anniversary of Rodgers and Hammerstein's The Sound of Music, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

John Legend, John Mayer and The ASCAP Foundation will also receive awards during the event.
Natasha Bedingfield is to perform at the gala on November 8 at New York's Cipriani restaurant.
