AllMusic     [6]

AllMusic reviewer Ken Dryden stated: "Sir Roland Hanna's 1971 sessions for MPS pairs the veteran pianist with bassist David Holland [sic] and drummer Daniel Humair, focusing exclusively on the leader's originals that were originally intended as a suite, though they stand very well individually, too. ... Overall, the music is not quite up to the level of other recordings under Hanna's leadership, though it is still a worthwhile LP".[6] On All About Jazz, Marc Myers observed: "It's stormy, lyrical and loaded with innovative solo passages by all three musicians. Holland's bass solos are woody and superb while Humair's drumming has persistent force and a sense of freedom. Hanna is exceptional here and highly inventive. The Child of Gemini suite is exceptional and the trio together was delightfully percussive".[7]
