Homage (Joe Lovano album)

Mike Hobart writing for Jazzwise stated: "The second ECM release from Joe Lovano and Marcin Wasilewski’s piano trio finds the American saxophonist maintaining a strong presence while slotting into the long-established Polish trio’s confident, collective approach. Shapeshifting moods, an inner pulse and interweaving lines define the trio’s aesthetic; Lovano’s gruff tone and fine-tuned timing remain intact."^[5] Sebastian Scotney of The Arts Desk wrote: "Joe Lovano has found the ideal context to play with a remarkable spontaneity and freedom. His ethereally light tread here has come an almost unbelievably long way from the heavy-hitting extraversion of an album like “Solid Steps”. But this is a very good place to be. Recommended."^[3]
