Scott Yanow of Allmusic said "In general the improvisations are quite relaxed and thoughtful and, although the results are not all that essential, the altoist's fans will find much to enjoy during these fine performances".[3]

Personnel
gollark: However, nobody would use it as nobody would find videos on it and I can't pay ad revenue.
gollark: I could host one *now* at literally zero cost to me (as long as the traffic isn't too high).
gollark: Video platforms are easy. The hard part is discovery and monetization.
gollark: I think this is less bad, in various ways, than forcing people to waste time and dignity or whatever on deliberately interviewing for jobs they don't actually want.
gollark: The correct approach is to use nginx or similar software to load-balance between companies.
