The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars stating "Although this music could be called avant-garde, there is nothing random about the notes picked or the many emotions expressed".[3]

gollark: See, much of the time, fixing bugs adds more bugs. It is possible to reduce but not eliminate the bugs you get via fixing bugs.The trouble comes when you fix the bug in a hurry, and then the broken version runs on the live servers for whatever you're thingying.
gollark: Me too.
gollark: Usually you don't then upload the broken version to the production server, see.
gollark: Er, "fixed".
gollark: > bug is introduced> TJ09 "fixes" bug and causes new problems> everything breaks> goto start
