Reception

edit

The JazzTimes review by LLoyd Sachs observed "With its utterly distinctive chamber sound, Anders Jormin’s Ad Lucem is a certain winner this year in the Latin jazz category—no, not the Latin jazz played by Eddie Palmieri, but the considerably rarer kind featuring lyrics in the language of Caesar."[2]

All About Jazz stated "any new recording from Jormin proves well worth the wait and Ad Lucem is no exception."[3]
