I consider this one of my most richly lyrical and consistently inspired works, wrote Keith Jarrett of Mirrors, the almost half-hour long concluding piece on Arbour Zena. Jan Garbareks contribution is irreplaceable and ecstatic. It is easy to agree that Arbour Zena as a whole is one of Jarretts most exceptional albums. Evocative writing for strings, beautiful playing by Keith and Jan and by Charlie Haden at his most soulful, and a glowing panoramic production make this 1975 recording one of the finest of the early ECMs.
