A spellbinding showcase for Roberto Magris whose notable artistry enables Enigmatix to stand out in a crowd."[6] The All About Jazz review by Edward Blanco awarded the album 4 stars and simply states: "Pianist Roberto Magris takes on the challenge of modern jazz by producing a stellar new sound on the creative Enigmatix, featuring a tad more of his improvisational skills, compositional diversity and excellent musicianship in delivering another outstanding outing affirming his reputation as one of the finest piano men in the world."[7]
