We have participated twice in Latvian Voices a cappella festival in Latvia, Valmiera from where we got good advice from a cappella professionals who are the members of Latvian Voices, The Real Group and Rajaton.

Piret has a contact with the universe and inspiration. Mirt\u00b4s original songs start to ring in her ears first \u2013 the melody and words together. Piret has a lot of persistence and detail sensitivity and using these she makes her songs into 5-voices a cappella arrangements. Piret is also a creator in handycraft world \u2013 she has written two books and her hands create beautiful and soft merino wool knittings. Piret\u00b4s laughter is very catchy, she is empathic and stands for a positive and uplifting inner climate. Besides the musical creation Piret also manages Mirt\u00b4s social media and web page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-518\" width=\"159\" height=\"239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC01577-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Merit Hirvoja Tamm (I alto) - Merit\u2019s voice vibrates and resounds in upper as well in lower ranges. When Piret is working on arrangements, she knows that for Merit any part is singable \u2013 directly from the tablature! Merit loves dancing and sometimes also gets carried away while performing on stage as a singer \u2013 in this case singers next to her need to move over a bit and make place for her. Merit is a great photographer and also handles photo-related topics in Mirt. She also manages Mirt's accountancy and communication with clients and sound engineers. Merit is the craziest one saying yes to almost any project and selling these ideas among other band members afterward.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-519\" width=\"161\" height=\"242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02091-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 161px) 100vw, 161px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Elerin Karpin (II alto) - Elerin has pleasurably mild and low timbre that caresses the ear. Elerin is special with her phenomenal memory - she knows the authors of all of our songs and from which parish some folk tune descends. Also you can ask from her when and where we have performed - she knows everything! By heart! Granted that Elerin has acquired law education then it is no surprise that everything is accurately and correctly under her control. In our ensemble Elerin is the person who deals with current documents and draws up projects of Mirt. We are very thankful to her for reminding us things that should be done and she is able to do it in a gentle and cute way, yet very consistently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-520\" width=\"159\" height=\"238\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02183-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" translation-block\">Karel Tohv (tenor) - Karel has pleasantly large voice range, he sings both higher alto and baritone parts. Karel has extremely good head - in the second rehearsal with a new song he already sings by heart. And he does that even if we took five new songs. Karel is heartfelt and smart. He notices little details in our notes and pays attention to them. He also keeps the atmosphere warm and supportive. In Mirt Karel makes both original and cover-arrangements, he has very good sense of harmony and rhythm. Karel also sings in Estonian National Mail Choir. Karel joined Mirt in Autumn 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-521\" width=\"159\" height=\"239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-8x12.jpg 8w, https:\/\/www.vocalgroupmirt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/DSC02099-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 159px) 100vw, 159px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Karl Ruudi (bass) - Karl has been singing all his life and would almost be a professional singer if he hadn't chosen to show his talent in the IT sector. During rehearsals, Karl is at one point extremely precise in detail, at the same time being able to sing and analyze the purity of both his own and others' notes with millimeter precision - extraordinary. And the next moment he can make such a joke that everyone is on the floor with laughter. Sometimes it seems that the goal of Karl and Karel is to end each rehearsal in such a way that the Mirt\u00b4s women have laughed their voices off. Karl is very practical, caring and reliable. He keeps our technical issues under control and is solution-oriented in every situation. Karl joined Mirt in the summer of 2023.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mirt on 6-liikmeline P\u00e4rnu juurtega vokaalgrupp. Laulame nii popiliku kui ka folgiliku k\u00f5laga originaalloomingut, Eesti algup\u00e4raste rahvalaulude t\u00f6\u00f6tlusi ning cover-eid hoogsatest popplugudest.
