The Allmusic awarded the album 3 stars and stated "Trombone Panorama was the first of several albums Kai Winding was to cut during the mid-'50s and early 1960s where he was joined by a shifting cast of fellow trombone players... The flowing seamless technique employed by these top slide-instrument artists resulted in a graceful, mellifluous sound that gave these recordings a chamber jazz feel".{{AllMusic|first=Dave |last=Nathan |class=album |id= mw0000872697 |title=Trombone Panorama – Review |accessdate=July 11, 2016}}
