Katharina Müllner live in Hamburg

Experience Katharina Müllner live on January 23rd

Katharina Müllner will perform at the Staatsoper Hamburg on January 23, 2027. Müllner is a contemporary Austrian composer known for her often minimalist and subtly textured works, frequently incorporating extended vocal techniques and exploring themes of fragility, memory, and the human voice. Her compositions often blur the lines between opera, concert music, and performance art, demonstrating a keen interest in spatial sound and unconventional instrumentation.

The Staatsoper Hamburg holds a significant place in German operatic history. Founded in 1897, it arose from the earlier tradition of performances at the Tuschinski-Theater and Campagne Theater. The current building, constructed between 1904-1907 by architect Martin Haller, replaced an earlier theatre destroyed by fire. Throughout its history, the Staatsoper has been renowned for its strong ensemble tradition and commitment to both standard repertoire and contemporary works. It underwent extensive renovations completed in 2017, modernizing facilities while preserving its historical architectural features. The house is known for its excellent acoustics and capacity of approximately 1600 seats. The Staatsoper operates as part of the Hamburg State Opera Foundation alongside the Thalia Theatre and the Hamburg Ballet.
