Miriam Hanika & the small poetry orchestra: When poetry begins to shine in the Schlossberghalle
With her program In Search of Light, Miriam Hanika brings a concert to Starnberg on September 27, 2026, which opens up its own sound world between chamber music, art-pop, and jazz. In the Schlossberghalle, an extraordinary live atmosphere meets an evening that intertwines music, language, and emotion closely. The event is scheduled for 6:00 PM and runs until 8:00 PM.

An ensemble with an open horizon
Miriam Hanika calls her project the small poetry orchestra: a versatile ensemble of multi-instrumentalists that paints fine shades in the room with singing, oboe, English horn, piano, cello, drums, and percussion. The performance in Starnberg promises a concert experience that does not rely on volume but on dynamics, orchestration, and a touching synchronization of voices and instruments. The city of Starnberg announces the evening as a concert in the Schlossberghalle. ([starnberg.de](https://www.starnberg.de/kultur-freizeit/schlossberghalle/veranstaltungen?utm_source=openai))
Music between chamber atmosphere and pop feeling
Hanikas artistic signature has been regarded as unique for years: oboe and English horn bring instruments to the forefront that are rarely so prominent in the pop scene. Her releases range from Wanderlust to Louise and Wurzeln & Flügel to Schilflieder; she has also received awards such as the promotion award for young songwriters from the Hanns-Seidel-Stiftung in 2024, the music scholarship from the City of Munich in 2021, and first prize at the international Ars Ventus competition with the Dandelion Quintet in 2019. The album Louise was also nominated for the German Record Critics' Award. ([de.wikipedia.org](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miriam_Hanika?utm_source=openai))
Voices that linger
The press describes Hanika as The Poetess with the Oboe, praises her art songs as emotionally intelligent, and highlights her artistry with words. Such classifications fit an evening where nuance becomes more important than routine and where the audience does not just listen to songs but experiences a finely balanced stage performance. The new album Light will be presented in Starnberg before its release. ([de.wikipedia.org](https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miriam_Hanika?utm_source=openai))
