Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars, stating, "there is a surprising amount of ferocious interplay between the two musicians. They may play at a consistently low volume, but the set of originals has a few rather passionate grooves and a little more energy than one would have predicted".[3]
