Kenny G and his wife, Lyndie Benson-Gorelick, are working out their marital issues in private ... TMZ has learned.
We're told the case will be handled by a private judge, because both Kenny and his wife want to avoid the drama of a public break-up.
Both Kenny G and his wife filed for legal separationearlier this month. In fact, they each filed their legal docs the same day, leading us to believe this was a coordinated effort by Kenny's lawyer, LauraWasser, and Lyndie's attorney, Gary Fishbein -- and that generally means the parties are getting along.
Kenny G's wife has filed for legal separation in their 20 year marriage ... TMZ has learned.
Lyndie Benson-Gorelick filed papers in L.A. County Superior Court -- citing "irreconcilable differences."
The couple has 2 sons.
There's a lot of money on the line. There's a report Kenny is worth around $50 million.
There's one big sign the case is eventually headed to divorce court ... both Lyndie and Kenny have lawyered up with high-powered legal guns. Lyndie has Gary Fishbein, who has repped numerous celebs including Gabriel Aubry, Nikki Sixx, and Kenny has Laura Wasser, who has repped Britney Spears, Angelina Jolie and Kim Kardashian, to name a few.

It may be hard to recognize Kenny G with his majestic, mossy locks slicked down into some sort of mulletous mane -- but that's him, sans saxophone, shredding the gnar in Malibu yesterday.
NOW CHECK THIS OUT: Kenny G also plays the flute, has his pilot's license and can surf -- and Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger played the flute in high school, and can surf with airplanes.
Kenneth Gorelick's-- aka Kenny G's -- son Max is only 15, but the kid is already a clone of his father ... minus the "mature" hairline and world record for longest note ever recorded on a saxophone, of course.
Even Kenny G's sexually aware pre-teen kid and his buddies know more about contraception than Jamie Lynn -- if you're gonna get it on, at least wear a jimmy hat!

Also in L.A.: Posh herself, out with her hubby and Eva Longoria, Eva's co-star Nicollette Sheridan was swarmed at the Ivy, a thrilled to be covered Kenny G and Lindsay Lohan -- who once again covered her mug -- left Teddy's.
In NY: Pete and Ashlee said they're already married, Nicole and Joel didn't say a word, Rachel Bilson was barely recognizable as a blonde and Ashley Olsen (we think) actually showed her face.
It was a bizarro scene last night in Hollywood -- with Kenny G getting better V.I.P. treatment than Jennifer Love Hewitt.
Sir Paul McCartney must not be a "Ghost Whisperer" fan, because poor little JLove waited in line with everybody else who showed up for his "secret" performance last night at Amoeba Records in Hollywood. Hewitt didn't seem to mind, as she was seen happily signing autographs from the queue.
Alanis Morissette was spotted driving around the building with TMZ's favorite "Cheers" star Woody Harrelson, while Kenny G and his lady breezed in through the store's side entrance. Also caught at the show: Lukas Haas and John Larroquette.
