Between Two Worlds
Bansuri / Clarinet/ Soprano Saxophone
Welcome to my new Website. It includes a calendar of upcoming
events, a Bandcamp link to my recordings, and a description of
current projects.
Over 60 years as a seeker, student and creator, my musical life has been an arc inspired by 1960s jazz, a special moment in Greece where the lure of the east first drew me on to India. And now a deep dive into the roots of Nada Yoga (the yoga of sound) and an awakening to the spiritual, contemplative, essential mind/body awareness as I mingle my music world with Buddhism and the Dharma of Sound.
The Universe Hangs on Sound ‘Nada Brahma’
…the right sound, at the right time, and in the right place is what joins heart and mind, connects us to each other and to our precious world.
Listen “as if you are being told a secret” ‘Federico Fellini’
The sonic world of the tamboura is the Dharmakaya –
that vast space – emptiness and fullness – pregnant with possibilities the tamboura is also the ground – the drone ostinato SA – the fundamental root. Just as white light contains the full colour spectrum, the tonal centre, SA, includes all overtones, partials, harmonics. Many are beyond human hearing yet those overtones form the scaffold, the mandala of Raga. Raga – to color the mind – arises from this space.
Grounded in the raga tradition, Steve Gorn’s music invites a quiet, attentive listening experience. Click below to explore Steve’s recordings.

My Current Projects
Featured Performances
Far more than entertainment, music is a portal for mind-body synchronization; a conduit for engagement in ritual, group catharsis, entrainment and a holder of mythology and history. In this 20 minute talk, given at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, in Troy, NY. Steve Gorn explores The Transformative Power of Music in words and live performance.
