The solar calendar and the months of the Gregorian calendar year have no particular relationship with the phases of the Moon.
That's not true for lunar calendars like the Islamic calendar, or luni-solar calendars like the Hebrew calendar; for these, the first day of the month IS the date of the new moon. But the month of "April" doesn't tell you anything about the phases of the Moon. It's easy enough to calculate, and there are dozens of web sites that will give you the appropriate astronomical data including lunar phases.
For example, the U.S. Naval Observatory's web site will show you the times of sunrise, sunset, moonrise, moonset and moon phase for any date and location you specify. See the link below.
Waning crescent, about 2 days before the new moon.
Waning Cresent
The moon in the days before and after a full moon appear as a gibbous moon. A gibbous moon is anything between a full moon and a half moon.
On average, 29 1/2 days.
The Moon's phase is New Moon.
At the time of the new moon, the side of the moon we see is unlit.Of course, the other half, the side away from us, is lit by the sun. We just can't see it.
During the weekend 27th-28th April 2013 the moon's phase was Waning Gibbous.
In August, 2011, New Moon is the night of August 28th. Note that "New Moon" visually doesn't appear - there is no moon to seeon the night of "new moon".
