"This weekend’s Monterey Jazz Festival showed how the genre stays vital, as one generation passes the baton to the next." -Monterey County Weekly
“More than one of the strongest lineups in recent memory, the 66th season ... was a simultaneous outpouring of exceptional music and heartfelt appreciation for [Tim] Jackson’s commitment and dedication to the art form and the artists. -San Francisco Classical Voice
“...this festival year paints a really true picture of what jazz is today. I saw the extension of the young seekers of the ’60s and ’70s who are veterans now. There is a continuance of their reaching for the stars, expressing ideas that are deeply philosophical, yet with a sort of rock and roll attitude ... And that is the beauty of jazz.” -Monterey County Herald
'"All in all, the roster for this three-night/two-day jazz institution once again realized what seems to be MJF's curatorial mantra: jazz is an ever-evolving and multi-dimensional cultural organism ... [Tim] Jackson had a well-deserved moment in the spotlight celebrating his role as an important figure in jazz, an organizational life of a party with some deep and historic cultural implications."

"For me, it's just an absolute dream come true. I've actually been trying to get into this group ever since freshman year and now that I'm a senior, it's kind of a big accomplishment. There's just so much opportunity for us at this festival to meet musicians our age from all across the country. It's just such a blessing. -Paloma Cobbs-Silva, 2023 Women in Jazz member on KXJZ, Capital Public Radio, Sacramento, Calif.
