We are deeply saddened by the passing of Gordon Goodwin, CSUN Music Alumnus ’77. 💔

Gordon was an extraordinary musician—an award-winning saxophonist, pianist, bandleader, and arranger whose talent and artistry left a lasting impact on all who heard his work.

Our hearts are with his family, friends, and all who were touched by his remarkable life and legacy during this difficult time.
