MAZE works together on the basis of Vocal Leadership. In this we deploy different forms of leadership and team dynamics depending on the question and situation. We use the qualities we have in house, so we let you experience the effects of different leadership and organisational forms.
We don’t just want to sing for you, we want to sing it with you, make it with you, enjoy it with you. Multiplying our love of music with you by sharing it, that’s why we do what we do.
Merel Martens is a full-time choral leader, arranger, teacher and coach.

In the Netherlands Merel is known for her involvement with the award-winning vocal groups “Pitch Control”, “VOÏSZ Vocal Projects” and of course “MAZE Voices”. She is also vocal coach for several professional groups: “The Junction” (NL), “Perpetuum Jazzile” (SI), “Vocalocity”(IL) and “The Keystones” (FR). Since November 2015, Merel brings the “Vocal Leadership” method to two Dutch conservatories and trains choral leaders during courses and a master’s program in this relatively new discipline.
