Reception edit

The Allmusic review by Brian Olewnick awarded the album 4 stars stating "His obvious and remarkable fluency on alto allows Braxton to command the subtlest shadings as well as the harshest split tones at will. At the end, the dramatic impact of his performance is clear from the overwhelmingly positive and enthusiastic audience reaction".[5]
