In his review for Allmusic, Thom Jurek states "Coleman is a master, and if you're at all interested either in Yiddish music or solo piano recordings that transcend jazz, blues, and other folk forms, let Shmutsige Magnaten be it".{{allMusic|first=Thom|last=Jurek|class=album|title=Anthony Coleman – Shmutsige Magnaten> Review|id=mw0000345450|accessdate=January 16, 2014}}
