Within some deeper themes, including coming of age as a Korean adoptee, he's discovered in the process, resilience, optimism and joy. Jordan's music is meant to convey empathy and solidarity to others, and this album, Jordan's fifth as a leader, effectively fulfills these simultaneous pursuits. His stellar band includes Terell Stafford, Michael Dease, Helen Sung, Rodney Whitaker, and Lewis Nash. \"an emotive, adventurous and timeless spirit of jazz that's globally enjoyable.\" -Take Effect Magazine\"Brilliance, sparkle and punctuation are the key words of this album, to which we must also add melodicism and the intelligent spontaneity of harmonic interactions.\" - Couleurs Jazz, Paris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Here and Now \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Tread Lightly \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Mourning Comes Again \u003cbr\u003e1.4 Softly As in a Morning Sunrise \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Sea of Tranquility \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Come Sunday \u003cbr\u003e1.7 Milyang Arirang \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Mo's Blues \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Survival of the Fittest\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Jordan Vanhemert","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41590530277447,"sku":"45062667","price":17.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/4416281-3376122.jpg?v=1744195229","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/vanhemert-jordan-survival-of-the-fittest","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
