Marina Pacheco holds a “remarkable musicality, unusual confidence and solid technique, justifying the applause, not so much for the pleasant physical presence, but for the vocal ductility” (in Público).Upcoming engagements involve concerts in Portugal, Mozambique and Germany.Winner of 26th edition of Prémio Jovens Músicos (Portugal) and awarded in several competitions around Europe, Marina performs regularly in opera, oratorio, lied and contemporary music. Praised by the international press for her “perfect virtuosity” and “talent as an actress”, she sang in several countries in Europe, as well as Cape Verde, Colombia, Mozambique and South Africa.She dedicates herself to the promotion of Portuguese music with three released albums: “João Arroyo: obra para canto e piano”, “Canções de Lemúria” and “Cantiga partindo-se”.In 2021 she released the album “Schmetterlinge” with the support of NEUSTART KULTUR with a musical concept which combines music and environmental issues’ awareness. In 2022 she was also supported by NEUSTART KULTUR.At the age of eight she represented Portugal at 37º Zecchino d’Oro (Italy), going on stage since then always with the same motto of life: "You’re never fully dressed without a smile" (Annie).---"Les deux sœurs Fiordiligi et Dorabella sont ici campées par les jeunes et ravissantes Marina Pacheco et Inês Constantino, mais les deux cantatrices ne sont pas que cela. La première, à l’aigu puissant et tranché, possède dans le timbre une vibration qui émeut." [Emmanuel Andrieu | Opera Online | Così fan tutte 2021]"(...)She was acclaimed by the audience two more times, having the opportunity to show her talent as an actress, beyond the nice voice, which she dominates with a young and elegant lightness even in the most difficult transitions." [Jan-Lucas Schmitt | Neue Osnabrücker Zeitung | 2015]"“You’re never fully dressed without a smile”, says the young Portuguese. And that was what she received, as well as many and thunderous applauses after her performance of Olympia’s aria from “The Tales of Hoffmann” by Offenbach." [Carmen Busch | Mitteldeutsch Zeitung | 2015]"Not fell short of the orchestral events and so much revelation the entrance of the young Portuguese Marina Pacheco, who knew how to delight the audience with her soprano voice placement. What has been sung with the orchestra under the direction of the conductor Marc Tardue at Volkshaus stage was the best of the musical theatre with a perfect virtuosity till the highest note of the soprano’s voice."
