The Allmusic review by Brian Olewnick stated "Composition 113 is not nearly as forbidding or difficult as one might guess at first blush, given its ascetic instrumentation. Braxton's tone is rich and luscious throughout and he freely draws on both blues and romanticism, making this one of his more accessible solo forays. Highly recommended".{{AllMusic|first=Brian |last=Olewnick |class=album |id= mw0000889712|title=Composition 113 – Review |accessdate=June 6, 2017}}
