Finland

Singer, composer and teacher, Merzi Rajala pioneered the concept of “rhythmic” choir directing in Finland. She is specialised in pop, world fusion music and choral improvisation. Alongside her own choral work, Merzi teaches a course in Global Choir Leadership at the Sibelius Academy in Helsinki. She prefers an interactive approach to music to bring out a sincere and authentic groove in choral music interpretation.
