Allmusic awarded the album 4½ stars, stating: "Although the team of Joe Lovano and the ageless Hank Jones was not inevitable, it has proven to be an ideal matchup between two giants of jazz. Recommended". [2] In JazzTimes Mike Joyce wrote "on this intimate date, recorded live in Manhattan, what’s particularly apparent is the ease with which Lovano and Jones exchange ideas while complementing not just each other but also the tune at hand". [5] All About Jazz called it "a disc of pure pleasure—two jazz greats with over a century of experience between them engaged in a joyful, generous, and spontaneous musical conversation" [3]
