The third piece is dedicated to the film director Andrey Tarkovsky

Reception[]

Allmusic awarded the album with 3 stars and its review by Mark W. B. Allender states: "On the hip with most of Garbarek's recordings, this one is airy and spacy — belting out screaming sax lines. The five pieces here — serially titled — tend to blend together, giving the impression of one long song".[3]
