The Penguin Guide to Jazz called it "one of the high points" of her catalogue, stating "it's a beautifully crafted set with a characteristic integration of three voices, not just piano-plus-rhythm, but it's marred by an unsympathetic mix that always seems to be focussing on one element at a time".[4] AllMusic reviewer Scott Yanow stated "The potentially forbidding music (which has advanced modal-based solos) is often surprisingly accessible and full of subtle surprises and close interplay by the musicians. Although not her definitive release, this album keeps Joanne Brackeen's record perfect; every one of her recordings stands up well over time".[3]
