"Mit Leichtigkeit schafft es Marta, die Beschränkungen von Genre und Instrument hinter sich zu lassen und dem Publikum zu zeigen, was Frau in der Musikwelt n̵i̵c̵h̵t̵ kann und n̵i̵c̵h̵t̵ darf."

Ian Smith, Frusion UK 2022

"Durch ihren Abschluss in Jazz und Modern Music mit Spezialisierung auf Gitarre wurde sie die erste Jazz-Gitarristin Portugals – und starkes Vorbild vieler Frauen in dieser Szene. Bereits im Alter von drei Jahren traute sich die in Lissabon geborene Multi-Instrumentalistin auf die Bühne und gründete später sie mit ihren Geschwistern eine Garagenband. Mit „Marta and The Boat“ rief sie ihre erste Solo-Show ins Leben. Klar ist: Musik ist aus dem Leben der Portugiesin nicht wegzudenken!"

​"Uma One girl show. A autonomeada musicista, trouxe-nos jazz que soube tocar, trouxe-nos as suas raízes alentejanas que soube cantar, trouxe-nos histórias que soube contar (…) tem uma expressão que ficamos contagiados (…)".

Lázaro Raposo, Meia de Rock e Açoriano Oriental 2019

O seu sentido de missão, enquanto artista, é revelado em cada som, em cada letra, em cada canção, colocando-se ao serviço da Música – “a Música é bem maior que nós!”

Joaninha Duarte, Concerto 2019

Julia Wagner, Concerto 2019
