The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 5 stars and stated: "This two-CD set captures one of the milestones in Duke Ellington's long and extremely productive career, highlighted by his monumental suite "Black, Brown and Beige" in the only full-length version ever recorded by his orchestra... Every serious jazz library should contain this set".[2]
