Reception

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "While none of these men are flashy as soloists, they are seriously accomplished jazzmen with advanced ability to hang with anyone. They have the goods, the ideas, and the method. When playing together, they can literally astonish because they make it all sound so easy. It's been a few years since a piano trio's debut has literally sung, but this one does so unceasingly. It has color and space and drama and beauty in spades". [4]
