AllMusic	[3]

In his review for AllMusic, Thom Jurek states "This is a record that sings; its song is a wild and wooly one to be sure, but it is a giant leap compositionally for Ware, and for the ensemble."^[3]

Mike Joyce of The Washington Post wrote: "Ware has developed an increasingly compelling voice as an instrumentalist on his own recordings in recent years. The sheer force of his tone -- and his seemingly superhuman ability to sustain and manipulate its raw emotional power -- are a marvel to behold, perhaps more so now than ever."^[4]
