Reception

The AllMusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "While her many scores for his films have been celebrated for their subtlety and ingenious sense of time and nuance – as well as instrumentation, texture, and color – this one moves across musical cultures as well as across the span of years built into the script. As a piece of music, it walks the line between modern classical music with folk themes and more historical post-Romantic-era composition".[2]
