She is a confident, technically brilliant keyboard artist who uses a fertile imagination to create new lines and shapes from her raw materials. Thus these “standards,” played by countless pianists and other jazz players, take on different colors and textures and tell new stories in her hands. … She and her cohorts—bassist Derrick Hodge and drummer Lewis Nash—take Sung’s sense of composition and work beautifully together to emerge with new wine taken from the traditional old bottles. (Donald Elfman/AllAboutJazz).

Personnel:

Derrick Hodge – bass
Lewis Nash – drums
Helen Sung – piano
