The Blue Pipa Trio, comprised of Min Xiao-Fen (pipa, vocals); Mark Helias (bass), and Steve Salerno (guitar), transcends borders with cutting-edge music. A breathtaking virtuoso and courageous pioneer, Min blends ancient Chinese music and her own compositions with interpretations of jazz and bluegrass. Min Xiao-Fen’s work has been commissioned by The Kitchen in NYC, the Trio has performed at the JVC Jazz Festival, and recorded for Bjork’s new album.
