Reception
Judith Schlesinger in her review for All About Jazz stated, "Into the Blue is a blue ribbon event. Emmanuel Pahud is a classical flutist. Jacky Terrassson is a jazz pianist known for his playful inventiveness. Into the Blue contains beauty and surprise and flashes of wit, which is typical of anything Terrasson does. Organically floating on the third stream, this one will appeal to both classical and jazz fans."

In 2003, the album was nominated for Grammy award as Best Classical Crossover Album.
