Allmusic[2]

In his review for Allmusic, David R. Adler notes that "Solitaire, the first solo piano album by Uri Caine, is a tour de force... Here, with nothing but 88 keys to work with, he makes music as electrifying as anything in his catalog". [2] On All About Jazz C. Michael Bailey said "The music is a bit indescribable, as its depth and breath are immense. Suffice it to say that the recording is a bit like an Avant Guard Classical recital where the performer has a stream-of-consciousness conversation with the instrument and we, the audience, are eaves-dropping".[3]
