The AllMusic reviewer wrote: "His technique is immaculate and contrapuntal-minded, the selection of material offbeat, but we don't feel as if we are in the presence of a strong individual personality; one responds with the head and not the heart."[3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz preferred Rosenthal's originals, and suggested that he tended to show off.[2]

gollark: See, personally, I don't see much value in being able to do base conversions really fast mentally when I can offload that work to a computer of some kind.
gollark: I mean, it was just in an animon (that's the singular).
gollark: Did you really *witness* it, though?
