There are hints of aching melody and some wondrous orchestral effects...As 'Sustain' swirls inexorably towards its ultimate destruction, it exerts a gravitational pull that has the dramatic certitude of a Greek tragedy...The performance is utterly gorgeous as well as gripping, and stunningly captures the clear acoustic of Disney Hall. Fervently recommended.

Mr. Norman’s music is best heard live: He’s a composer who thinks as much about the physical spectacle of playing as about the resulting sound. But “Sustain” loses none of its brilliance in this recording, available only on digital platforms — its shifts are now somehow more seismic yet more subtle, its details more focused.
