Reception
In an All About Jazz review, Dan McLenaghan commented: "It's a blowing session—no group rehearsal, just some brief pre-recording discussions about how to approach some familiar tunes. But man, what a blowing session ... one of the finest jazz flute recordings to be found".McLenaghan, D. All About Jazz Review, accessed April 18, 2018
