Reception
The Allmusic review by Michael G. Nastos awarded the album 3 stars calling it "a beautiful contemporary statement reflecting the cinematic forms Brahem loves, mixed with European classical and improvisational sensibilities, professionally rendered, and well within the tradition of world jazz and the clean ECM concept"[2]
