Reception

AllMusic reviewer Stephen Cook stated "Driven by Walton's provocative and involved accompaniment, Moore ably displays his lithe and tart horn work ... A fine addition to any straight-ahead jazz collection". On All About Jazz Terrell Kent Holmes wrote "These stellar players combine to produce an album that is almost effortless in its excellence. The interplay throughout Mosaic is a pleasure to hear".^[4]
