O’s Notes: South Korean pianist and composer Haeun Joo plays rich melodies complimented by bassist Doug Weiss and drummer Ronen Itzik. She also breathes shadowing vocals that soften the approach on several selections, notably “86”. Trumpeter Matt Holman shines on “Questions”, one of our favorites along with “Eternal Love” and the title track. We Will Find is a solid debut for Joo.
