The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow states "This is one of Rova's more accessible projects, although the music certainly has its adventurous and passionate moments. Recommended".[3] On All About Jazz Jeff Stockton said it was "as approachable as Rova gets, an enjoyably listenable point of entry into the work of this groundbreaking veteran group".[4]

gollark: Write the book, ***or else***.
gollark: *Or else.*
gollark: Do they just expect stuff to cost the *same* despite the same demand and lower supply?
gollark: I don't see why they expect that to help, if people are willing to buy it at higher prices.
gollark: No it's not. The price is high, so you should sell it.
