The Penguin Guide to Jazz[5]

AllMusic awarded the album 3 stars, stating: "The emphasis is on ballads and his treatments of these songs (which include three religious pieces) are respectful, melodic and lightly swinging. There is not much variety here but the music (within its limitations) is enjoyable".[4]
