The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 3 stars, writing that "although nothing all that unexpected occurs, it is fun."[4]
NPR, as part of its Take Five series, singled out the title track, writing: "Scott was powerful, especially for her size, but her style also employed control and subtlety, even when working with a large ensemble."[5]
