Helen Sung Trio
Kirkland Performance Center, 8, $30 BUY ONLINE

Helen Sung
Joyfully embracing jazz after a classical performance education, Helen Sung has the background to fuel her engaging explorations and to attract top-flight sidemen like Reuben Rogers (bass) and Adam Cruz (drums). Winner of the Kennedy Center’s Mary Lou Williams Piano Competition, pianist Sung has been called “one of the brightest emerging stars in jazz today.” Her CD Helenistique was praised as “one of the year’s most exciting listens” by JazzTimes. Her latest release, Sungbird After Albéniz, a jazz-classical adventure, is being hailed “a real winner” (All About Jazz) and a “seamless recording in which one composer’s contributions complement the other’s.” (Billboard). Most recently, her project NuGenerations was selected as a 2009 U.S. State Department-Rhythm Road ensemble and will tour Africa as musical ambassadors.
