In his review for Allmusic, Stephen Cook said " For the most part, the music moves at a lithe pace, matching the festive sounds of the crowd with exuberant and playful performances. Maybe not the right fit for classical purists, but certainly a fine offering for the adventurous listener".[2] Writing for All About Jazz, C. Michael Bailey said "Wagner e Venezia is one of the pinnacles among pinnacles from the pianist/composer's early output".[3]
