“While not a household name like Duke Ellington or Miles Davis, Charles Mingus is perhaps the greatest and most respected jazz composer of all time. He wrote and performed music with a fiery brilliance equal to that of Igor Stravinsky's, and his innovations have set the standards for the current avant-garde scene.”

“Превратившееся за год-два из почти подпольной группы в культовый состав, трио Мартин-Медески-Вуд записывается на престижных лэйблах «Verve» и «Blue Note». Их провокационный, эклектичный джаз-фанк-хипхоповый стиль благодаря хаммонд-органу приобретает временами ещё и блюзовые краски, заставляя молодёжь танцевать, а «старичков» ностальгически кивать головами и притопывать, подчиняясь необузданной энергии этой музыки.”

“Мингус представлял собой одну из ярчайших индивидуальностей в рамках послевоенного джаза, он был богатой и сложной личностью и никогда не ограничивался простым рационализмом в выборе выразительных средств. Руководитель оркестра, контрабасист, пианист, композитор, создавший огромное число индивидуальных работ... Нельзя преуменьшить сущность и силу его воображения, искать в его работах некий смысл, оправдывая, доказывая эту форму и ее характерные элементы. Джаз в этом не нуждается.”
