Du Yinjiao (Chinese: 杜银鲛; pinyin: Dù Yínjiǎo; born 1965 in the China) is a Chinese saxophonist. He began his musical career in a music regiment of the People's Liberation Army. In the 1980s he became interested in jazz music, which was at that time virtually unknown in China. In the face of official disapproval, he taught himself to play jazz by studying and transcribing contraband jazz tapes and books. Du plays soprano, alto, tenor, and baritone saxophones, and is currently developing the "Du Yinjiao saxophone," a Chinese-made line of saxophones bearing his name.
