The AllMusic review by Richard S. Ginell awarded the album 4½ stars and states, "While the Standards Trio rarely takes anything for granted, transforming everything in its path, the results are not quite as inventive here as on other releases".[3]

Downbeat awarded the album 4.5 stars.[5] Reviewer John Ephland wrote that the album was "a stunning musical communion that finds Jarrett, Peacock, and Dejohnette swinging their little asses off one moment, playing it slow, delicate, and heartfelt the next".[5]
