The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek states: "Magris employs a group of mixed Europeans in charting his inner space where classical formalism meets post-hard bop jazz and free modalism. He writes from the point of view of sound first and then individual instrumentation, taking a macro view of the tonal and lyrical picture, and he succeeds magnificently." [1]
