Helen Sung, who was originally from Houston, studied classical piano and violin before settling on jazz piano when she was in her early twenties.

Since moving to New York, she has become a major name in the jazz world, particularly after working with Clark Terry, Wayne Shorter, Ron Carter, Wynton Marsalis, Regina Carter, and Cecile McLorin Salvant.

On her LiveStream from May 9, 2020, Helen Sung pays tribute to the legacy and music of Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn, performing Strayhorn’s “Passion Flower” (which is given a particularly explorative and inventive treatment), an often out-of-tempo “In A Sentimental Mood,” a swinging “Everything But You,” “ Single Petal Of A Rose,” “Feed The Fire,” and “Isfahan” which has a notable guest trumpeter.
