The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4 stars stating "this set is quite accessible and finds all of the musicians in top form".[3]
Writer Michael Stephans called the album "surprisingly traditional-sounding," and commented: "The session is quite relaxed, and... all four musicians are at the top of their game."[5]
