[...]

Halvorson's compositions on Cloudward are impressive. She accounts for
individual players' strengths as soloists while counting on them as ensemble
players. She grafts and threads striated post-bop harmony, edgeless dissonance,
and kinetic drama simultaneously, then blurs the edges expressionistically in
crafting a detailed, multivalent, resonant, deeply satisfying whole from
seemingly disparate individual elements.
