Description

Helen Sung was studying to become a classical pianist when she heard a piano solo by jazzman Tommy Flanigan that nudged her onto a different path. She started studying jazz and was accepted into the inaugural class of the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz Performance at the New England Conservatory. She's since established herself as a dynamic musical force who has shared stages with numerous jazz legends, including Herbie Hancock and Wayne Shorter. An acclaimed performer and bandleader, Sung has been featured on NPR, performed at the White House and won prestigious awards. The takeaway? When destiny calls, it's a good idea to listen.
