Scott Yanow reviewed the album for Allmusic and wrote that "In general Tuckwell does not improvise but Shearing's arrangements give a jazz feel to all of the performances and make the music accessible (if not really essential) to both classical and jazz listeners".[2]

gollark: Hmm, yes, fair point. Split the research in half and make *half* of it public and the *other* half not public!
gollark: This is a time in which it would be totally possible to just stick the PDFs (or EPUBs/HTML, which are superior) on a website or something at reasonably low cost.
gollark: If it's publicly funded, it should be available to anyone (at least anyone in the country), at no cost.
