In his review on All About Jazz, C. Andrew Hovan stated[5]
Schneiderman’s art is one of understated elegance and over the course of his previous eight Reservoir sides he has evolved into a singular pianist of great merit. This new affair is simply a trio date with bassist Ray Drummond and drummer Winard Harper, although there’s nothing routine about the results.
In his review on Jazz Times, Miles Jordan opined[6]
...Schneiderman’s playing won’t make us forget Powell but it’s nice to be reminded of him.
