The greatest recognition of Marialy Pacheco’s qualities was winning the Montreux Jazzfestival Solo Piano Competition 2012. She is the first woman to win this prize in the competition’s 15-year history. She is also the only female pianist among the star Cuban pianists currently in vogue, such as Chucho Valdés, Roberto Fonseca, Omar Sosa and Gonzalo Rubalcaba.

“Marialy Pacheco has become one of the key artists of her generation. Her personal, velvety keyboard touch, dexterity and absolute mastery of the instrument shine throughout her new album RELOAD” (Michel Camilo).

She reminds me of the best Bach pianists. The dance comes alive when she plays Bach. Marialy has brought a joy and beauty to music that strictly classical pianists rarely achieve. She has an innate understanding of the origin of this music, it’s part of her living tradition” (…) (Richard Wenn – General Manager of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra)
