Reception
DownBeat awarded 4.5 stars and reviewer Pete Welding wrote, "These are subtle, thoughtful performances that grow in power the more, and more closely, one listens to them. If, as I did, you will play this record often, you’ll be more than amply repaid for your time and efforts; you'll probably come to love it, for it wears very well indeed".[1]
