Experience Nicholas Kiefer live on October 17th

Nicholas Kiefer will perform at Bateau Du Rhin in Strasbourg, France on October 17, 2026. Kiefer is a composer and performer whose work blends elements of contemporary classical music with electronic soundscapes and improvisation. His compositions often feature prepared piano, incorporating objects placed on or between the strings to alter the instrument’s timbre, alongside synthesizers and field recordings. Critics frequently describe his music as atmospheric, textural, and exploring themes of space and perception. He has released albums on labels such as Room40 and Penultimate Records and has collaborated with artists across various genres.

Bateau Du Rhin is a renowned concert venue situated on a permanently moored boat on the Rhine river in Strasbourg. Originally a cargo barge built in 1908, it was converted into a cultural space in the 1980s by the city of Strasbourg. The venue specializes in jazz, improvised music, and experimental sounds, hosting both established international artists and emerging talent. Its intimate setting and unique acoustic properties contribute to its reputation as a significant location for innovative musical performances within Europe. The space maintains a focus on supporting artistic risk-taking and fostering dialogue between musicians and audiences.
