The Allmusic review by François Couture awarded the album 4 stars out of 5, stating "a thrilling record, and one of Rova's most artistically successful collaborations... The Celestial Septet features a high level of amalgamation between the two ensembles and, honestly, one wishes for this combination to carry on. Rova and Nels Cline Singers are more than compatible; they complement each other's compositions".^[2]
