IN THE MOOD


Deborah Gorman studied music at the prestigious Royal College of music in London. She is a multi-instrumentalist and plays the clarinet, saxophone, flute and keyboard. Her music adds a touch of class to any launch, wedding, conference, party, corporate dinner, christening, Christmas celebration, or whatever you have in mind. Deborah often teams up with classically trained pianist Andrew Waugh and her repertoire encompasses light classical, mellow jazz, well-known classics, ballads, contemporary music, popular hits and Christmas music. Deborah can create any mood from a relaxed ambiance to a party atmosphere.

She has performed at Des & Dawn Lindberg's Soiree Society, the Samuel Marx Museum, the State Theatre, The Linder auditorium, Mount Grace, the Wild coast Sun, Sun City, The West Cliff, The Sandton Sun & Towers on the Blue Train and on the Rovos Rail. She performed for the opening of the Monte Casino and the Sandton Convention Centre and for the All Africa Games and the Dunhill Symphony of Fire. Deborah has played in concerts with Julian Lloyd Weber, Helmut Lotti, The Three Tenors and under the baton of sir David Wilcox. She is a regular player with Johannesburg Festival Orchestra and has played with the National Symphony Orchestra.

She has shared the stage with P.J. Powers, Yvonne Chaka Chaka, Sibongile Khumalo and Vicki Sampson. In April 1999, she released the album, Saxational, a compilation of some of her favourites, including jazz and Blues. Shortly afterwards she released Merry Christmas, with Love Debi.
