Allmusic[4]

The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow noted "Some of the music is quite romantic (particularly "Interlude" and "Opus in Pastels") and the renditions of such tunes as "Concerto to End All Concertos," "Collaboration," and "Artistry in Rhythm" certainly sound much different than the originals. A successful and often-haunting effort, well worth exploring".[4]

Personnel
gollark: An ecosystem of competing backups of things would be *interesting*.
gollark: I think you would mostly want to move it onto an electronic system as fast as possible to avoid any weirdness.
gollark: Random, but okay?
gollark: Oh, right.
gollark: Unless you make the thing produce spores somehow?
