Iñigo Giner Miranda was born in 1980 in Bilbao (Spain). He studied piano under the direction of Albert Nieto in Vitoria, then moved to Amsterdam in 2002. He pursued his composition studies there with Wim Henderickx as his main teacher, with a grant from the basque government. He later completed his Master studies at the UdK Berlin with Daniel Ott and Elena Mendoza, researching on the implementation of extramusical materials in the musical discourse, a project for which he received a DAAD / la Caixa scholarship.
He has received several prizes and distinctions in different competitions, and he's been commissioned to write pieces by different festivals and ensembles (such as Münchener Musiktheater Biennale 2012, Sonar Quartet, QNG Berlin or Alicante Festival 2011). His work integrates visual, textual and performative elements into the musical discourse, sometimes working with musicians and sometimes with performers/actors. He is a founding member of DieOrdnungDerDinge (the order of things), an ensemble formed by actors/musicians specialized in creating scenic concert-events. Within this line of work, he has also staged concerts for other ensembles and musicians (e.g. at Podium Festival Esslingen 14 & 15) as well as held workshops and talks on the subject (a.o. Budapest Music Centre, UdK and Humboldt University -Berlin-, and at the CMMR conference in London 2012).
He is equally active as a pianist/performer in the field of Musiktheater / Theatre, performing at venues like Schauspielhaus Zürich, Schauspielhaus Köln, Thalia Theater Hamburg or HAU Berlin among others. He currently teaches at the UdK Berlin, with an emphasis on the analysis and creation of new concert formats.
