| AllMusic |   [2] |
AllMusic awarded the album 4 stars stating "This is a stunningly beautiful recording, marking a distinct progression for Allen, and her complete awareness of the world at large. It might take several listenings to get used to, but the ultimate reward of this high artistic achievement is limitless."[2]
Pianist and composer Ethan Iverson wrote "the compositional integrity is striking," and commented: "Twylight has a concentrated offering of Allen's odd meter vamps that feel old and fresh at the same time. Over those vamps, Allen plays pretty chords, bluesy melodies, or jagged shapes. Everyone does this today, but at the time it was rousing call to arms."[3]
