ôSecret Playgroundö is Mirja MakelaÆs debut album which includes
mostly Makela's own original compositions and lyrics in English. The
cd was released in the year 2000, and it was chosen as one of the best
jazz albums of the year in the Finnish newspaper ôHelsingin Sanomatö.
In February of 1999, Mirja Makela received her master's degree in
music as the first jazz vocalist from the Sibelius Academy. Makela has
led her own band, MiriaM. & Band, since 1992. The band has recorded
for the Finnish Broadcasting Company, performed at several Finnish
jazz festivals and clubs, and also completed a tour of Germany in
1997. The Secret Playground album was released in February of 2000.
Mirja Makela has performed as a soloist with many big bands, such as
UMO Jazz Orchestra and Estonia Dream Big Band. She has also appeared
with several smaller groups. She is a member of a new a cappella vocal
jazz quartet, JimJamMurMur, which toured Finland under the auspices of
the Finnish Jazz Federation in the fall of 2002.
In 2000 she performed in Morocco at the Jazz aux Oudayas Festival as
the soloist with the Swedish trio BergerKnutssonSpering. Inspired by
this successful first performance, they have continued their
collaboration and have made several concert tours together in both
Finland and Sweden. Their latest co-work is the recently released
album Arco φris.
In addition to her own albums, Mirja Makela appears as one of the
featured artists on compilations by the Sibelius Academy Jazz
Department (1995) and the Finnish Jazz & Pop Archives (1996). She has
been voted female vocalist of the year three times in a row (1999,
2000 and 2001) by critics in the Finnish "Jazzrytmi" ("Jazz Rhythm").
