AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars and the review by Scott Yanow stated "As usual Braxton's improvising is quite advanced and original but is colorful and fiery enough to always hold on to open-eared listener's attention. This is one of literally dozens of stimulating Anthony Braxton sessions currently available". [4] On All About Jazz Troy Collins noted "Seven Compositions (Trio) 1989 is a telling document of Braxton's versatility as an innovative composer and congenial collaborator". [5]
