Reception [ edit ] Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating AllMusic [2]
Scott Yanow of AllMusic awarded the album two stars, saying, "This date is a bit commercial, with a small string section and woodwinds utilized on five of the nine numbers. Still, the beautiful tones of the co-leaders make this a worthwhile set."[2]
