Reception

The review by Tor Hammerø of the Norwegian electronic newspaper Nettavisen awarded the album four out of six.^[1]

Reviewer Erling Wicklund of the Norwegian radio broadcasting NRK states:

... And bandleader Vigleik Storaas is himself delightfully impossible to classify and diverse, both as pianist and composer. So then you just have to enjoy the septet-jazz rebirth in Norway...[2]
