Reception

[edit | edit source]

The AllMusic review awarded the album 4½ stars.[2] DownBeat assigned the release 4 stars.[3] Reviewer Michael Zipkin wrote the album "paints tone poems in cloudy, pastel hues with round, deliberate strokes . . . These compositions are more odysseys than melodies, roaming over ever changing landscapes that, for all their worship of texture and tonality, manage to surprise and delight as often as they wander".[3]
