Reception

More information Review scores, Source ...

The music has been described as "brilliant, optimistic closely unified thematic improvisations".[7] "Snowflakes and Sunshine" marked the introduction of his unconventional violin and trumpet playing. "In Coleman's hands, both instruments are refunctioned into 'sound tools' (...) producers of sounds, rhythms and emotions."[8]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz listed both volumes as part of its "Core Collection" and gave each a four-star rating (of a possible four stars).[9]

Pitchfork ranked the album 156th on their "The 200 Best Albums of the 1960s" list.[10]
