The Independent[3]

The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars stating "Bjørnstad has always valued subtlety and suggestion over frenetic engagement on his recordings. That is certainly true here, but he is also a wise bandleader: he chose these players for their myriad abilities to dialogue kinetically, listen deeply, and respond powerfully whenever the music dictated, and he was correct in doing so across the board. La Notte is rich, deep, and wonderful".[2]

The All About Jazz review by Hrayr Attarian said that "Much like the works of the cineastes that have inspired Bjørnstad's stimulating and captivating composition, its intellectual and emotional impact lasts long after the disc has stopped spinning".[4]

The Independent's Nick Coleman gave the album 3 stars and said "Familiar Bjornstad characteristics prevail: romantic tone, sedate tempo, shallow trajectory, much thought over what often sounds like uncomplicated harmony".[3]
