Reception

The Guardian reviewer John Fordham said of Up and Down, "Singer/pianist Carroll is a world-class act, but this is the first recording to capture the full range of her expressiveness. Up and Down embraces intimate voice/piano performances, orchestra-backed extravaganzas and jazz jams with soloists of the pedigree of Kenny Wheeler and Julian Siegel."[5]

Chris Parker, reviewing the album for LondonJazz, said that although Carroll was accompanied by a "starry assembly of musicians" on the album, "throughout, the focus is firmly on the Carroll voice and sensibility, inhabiting each song with all the honesty, integrity and sheer communicativeness that have won her, of late, the awards she so richly deserves".[6]

Bruce Lindsay, for All about Jazz, said: "She already has a strong body of work to her name, but Up And Down might just be her finest album to date".[7]
