AllMusic[2]

In his review for AllMusic, Michael G. Nastos states "This trio has grasped something uniquely subtle and admirably less than the sum of its parts. Not at all a critique, but in a way, admirable that three musicians can reduce their music to smaller pieces in order to expand their horizons."[2]
