Steve Gorn plays with liquid grace. He is a master of sound-magic; may the world discover his gift. --Paul Winter

Steve Gorn has performed Indian classical music and new American music on the bansuri (bamboo flute) throughout the world. At PEM he offers a unique presentation on raga-meditation and explains the aspects of this musical principle. Gorn will be accompanied by tabla player Akshay Navaladi, an international, award-winning performer and a student at Boston University working toward a degree in biomedical engineering. Gorn has worked with a range of artists, including musician Paul Simon, Academy Award-nominated director Julie Taymor and film director and choreographer Jerome Robbins.
