The Allmusic review stated: "Powerful atonal improvisors Lauren Newton, Mathies Ruegg leading and conducting the 13-piece group. The best soloists are Herbert Joos on flugelhorn, Harry Sokal on sax/flute, and Wolfgang Pusching on sax. ... The best cuts are 'Variations About Silence (For Ornette),' and 'Jelly Roll, but Mingus Rolls Better'".
