Dear Funeral and Cemetery Directors and coordinators,
​
I would love to support your service to grieving families at the funeral home or graveside services.
My first experience singing at a funeral home service helped me to discover or rediscover how there are so many places and spaces in every celebration where music can add so much to console, affirm, and uplift so powerfully, as we felt the entire atmosphere change while hearts were being tangibly uplifted and more closely unified in ways unimagined. And all it took was a song, or two. Sometimes I've been asked to speak or lead reflection or conversation but ,more often than not, music is all it will take, no accompaniment needed, in fact the feedback after has consistently been no accompaniment made the experience even more powerful in the simplicity.
Let's connect and partner to add even more tender care for your families through music, and will provide a music resume upon request.

Estimados Directores y coordinadores de Funerarias y Cementerios,
​
Me encantaría apoyar su servicio a familias en duelo, ya sea en velorios en la funeraria o entierros en el cementerio.
Mi primera invitación para servir en esta manera fue tan hermosa que me ayudó a descubrir o redescubrir cómo hay tantos lugares y espacios en cada celebración donde la música puede aportar tanto consuelo, afirmación y ánimo con tanta fuerza. La atmósfera cambio por completo mientras los corazones de los presentes se elevaban tangiblemente y se unían más estrechamente de maneras inimaginables con solo una o dos canciones. A veces se me ha pedido que hable o dirija una reflexión o conversación, pero la mayoría de las veces, la música es suficiente sin necesidad de acompañamiento; de hecho, la retroalimentación consistentemente indica que cantar sin acompañamiento hizo la experiencia aún más poderosa en su sencillez.
Conectémonos y colaboremos para brindar aún más tierno y consolador cariño a sus familias a través de la música. También les puedo proveer copia de mi resume' musical si desean.

LIFTING UP HEARTS
We were lifted up!
Marta's music and the loving care that comes across in every note lifted up and brought peace to my family during our difficult time of loss and grief. (Virginia V)
MADE OUR DAY SPECIAL
Every time we hear Marta sing, we feel tenderly enveloped by each note, making every event at which we've heard her sing, including a family funeral, extra special to the point there was nobody else we could think of to book to sing on our wedding day. (Tracy and John W.)
TURNED TEARS INTO HOPE
I booked Marta to sing at my mom's wake at the funeral home, then thought to ask her if she could address my family as well and, WOW. What followed was so beyond my highest expectations. The conversation she facilitated turned tears into hope in no time flat and had us ALL singing at the end. Thank you Marta! (BeeBee I.)
DIDN'T NEED MUSICAL ACCOMPANIMENT
We booked Marta to sing at a special private Mass and asked her if she would mind doing the Mass A Capella. She didn't hesitate and jumped right in with both feet, and we were so glad to have asked as the beauty and emotion in her voice needed no other music accompaniment to touch the hearts of everyone who attended.
