In a review for All About Jazz, John Sharpe called the album a "splendid outing," and wrote: "Looking back, you can see the attraction of having a pianist exploit pockets of space in the overall fabric, but by keeping intact the ambiguity such spaciousness confers, the rewards are even greater. So much so that it's difficult to pick out the single collective piece from the six compositions contributed by individual band members. That's because often they merely sketch out the written material, which gives a delicious feel of hidden structure without revealing too much of how it's achieved."[2]

Derek Taylor, writing for Dusted Magazine, stated: "As accommodating as the three players are to collaborators, a back-to-basics approach centering on their core association serves them well here."[4]
