The Penguin Guide to Jazz[1]

The Penguin Guide to Jazz notes that the album "is well worth searching out, not least for the interplay between two of the most interesting female performers in European free jazz. The improvisations here are well centred and almost earthy in impact, contrary to any false impression ´mist' may have given."[1]

In a review for Wondering Sound, Charles Farrell says "Beyond the Mist is genuinely interactive quartet music: The players are all integral to its success, contributing to the common language. Each also manages to establish a strong individual voice along the way."[2]
