Stefan Geiger live in City of Edinburgh

Experience Stefan Geiger live on December 22nd

Stefan Geiger will perform at Usher Hall in Edinburgh on December 22, 2026. Geiger is a German composer and pianist known for his contemporary classical music, often described as minimalist and atmospheric. His compositions frequently incorporate electronic elements alongside traditional piano performance, exploring themes of space, resonance, and altered states of consciousness. He often utilizes prepared piano techniques – modifying the instrument with objects placed on or between the strings – to create unique timbral effects. Geiger’s work has been featured in international festivals and installations, gaining recognition for its immersive quality and innovative soundscapes.

Usher Hall, opened in 1897, is a prominent concert venue in Edinburgh, Scotland. Designed by Robert Rowand Anderson, it is renowned for its exceptional acoustics and ornate Victorian architecture. Originally conceived as part of the city’s civic improvement scheme, Usher Hall was gifted to the city by Andrew Usher, a local brewer. Throughout its history, the hall has hosted a diverse range of performances including classical music concerts, orchestral performances from the Scottish National Orchestra (of which it is the primary base), choral works, jazz, rock and pop concerts.
