Reception

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "The package, as with all Tzadik releases, is stellar, full of three inserts, production notes, and a replica of the original score. If you allow it to, it will change the way you listen to music -- and maybe watch TV, too.".
