The AllMusic reviewer suggested that the performance was lacking in emotion: "after a short while, all of the rippling chromatic scales, arpeggios, impressionistic streaks, and showy technical displays become rather wearisome". [3] The Penguin Guide to Jazz praised the playing, while suggesting that "it's time that Drew had the self-possession to let go a bit". [2]
