Allmusic reviewer Steve Loewy states "this is one of the finest examples of free jazz at the turn of the century as you are likely to find, performed by five respected practitioners of the genre". [2] In JazzTimes Aaron Steinberg noted "Overall, Cries and Whispers is not an easy album to listen to, and Duval's advocates already know what they're getting into with this. Nevertheless, Duval and his men modulate this program very well; they pay attention not only to mood, tempo and dynamics, but also to form, structure and development in a way that doesn't retard their improvisational aims but still makes for great and listenable chunks of music".
