The album was reviewed by Richard S. Ginell at
Allmusic who wrote that it was Previn's "best album since his return to jazz at the close of the 1980s, and also the most surprising and unpredictable one of his entire jazz life". Ginell highlighted the title track, which he wrote was "almost avant-garde in its erudite looniness". Ginell praised Previn's playing as possessing "greater streaks of wit and a cannier use of space than ever before".
