Steve Gorn

Steve has performed Indian Classical music and new American music on the bansuri bamboo flute and soprano saxophone in concerts and festivals throughout the world. A disciple of the late bansuri master, Sri Gour Goswami of Calcutta, Gorn has been praised and recognized by critics and leading Indian musicians as one of the few western musicians to have captured the subtlety and beauty of Indian music. He performs and records with percussionist Glen Velez. In 1995, he toured Europe and Africa with Jack DeJonnette. As a theater composer, he has employed world music orchestration in scores for Jean-Claude van Itallie's adaptation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead and for numerous storytellig productions with Laura Simms. His most recent scores are for an ABC special on the New York Jewish Museum and for the PBS series, The Quiet Revolution.
