==Reception==
The [[Allmusic]] review by Richard S. Ginell awards the album 3.5 stars and states "Recorded in a heavily reverberant Austrian monastery, the voices sometimes develop in overwhelming waves, and Garbarek rides their crest, his soprano sax soaring in the monastery acoustic, or he underscores the voices almost unobtrusively, echoing the voices, finding ample room to move around the modal harmonies yet applying his sound sparingly."<ref>Ginell, R. S.[http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=10:39fqxq8hld6e Allmusic Review] accessed 11 March 2010</ref>
