In his review for Allmusic, critic Richie Unterberger wrote: "It's a solid set of cool but not cold bop with a low-key mood and uniformly tasteful playing... There's only one original on here (by Buddy), but it's a beaut: the buoyant "Beaux Arts" has gorgeous alternations of single-note solos and chording by Wes. In a different vein, "Angel Eyes," which begins with a long drumless passage, shows his skill with a delicate slow ballad."^[1]
