“…One of the greatest singers of all times!… As if it weren’t enough, Joyce is a great composer and plays ace guitar! What an amazing woman!” — Antonio Carlos Jobim, 1987.

“Brazilian composer, guitarist and singer Joyce is a young lady who can only be described as a genius” - Claus Ogerman, 1999

“Joyce is a Brazilian treasure” — DownBeat magazine, USA, 2010.

„These days, she occupies a status something like that of Joni Mitchell, a matriarch who paved the way for other women (…) while influencing a generation with her jazz-steeped songs. „ - Andrew Gilbert -East Bay Express, 2010

„ Her musical capacity surprised me when, years later, she reemerged playing guitar like the best (in the land of João Gilberto, Dori [Caymmi], [Gilberto] Gil, and João Bosco, this is not a bagatelle), her singing precisely tuned, writing songs with original harmonic and melodic imagination.“ Caetano Veloso - 2011

„ Her voice has grown deeper and richer, its chestnut luster as radiant as ever“ Christopher Loudon, Jazztimes, 2016
