Miguel Pérez Iñesta(clarinets), born in Valladolid (Spain), studied ballet, piano and clarinet at the Conservatorio Superior de Música del Principado in Asturias. He then continued his studies in Berlin at the HfM “Hanns Eisler” and at the “Karajan Academy” of the Berlin Philharmonic.
Since 2007 he has worked as a guest clarinetist with, among others, the Konzerthaus Orchestra, the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Berlin Philharmonic.
He is a founding member of the Zafraan Ensemble for New Music.
As a soloist, conductor and sought-after chamber musician, he performs at renowned festivals, opera and concert halls around the world.
With a very broad repertoire, Miguel has given concerts as a conductor with the soloist ensemble Kaleidoskop, the Zafraan Ensemble, the vocal ensemble Phoenix16, the Junge Norddeutsche Philharmonie, the Podium Festival Chamber Orchestra, the Kammerakademie Potsdam and the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich.
As an assistant conductor, he has taken part in opera productions at the Deutsche Oper Berlin, the Berlin State Opera and the Theater Basel.
For some time now, the conductor and clarinetist Miguel Pérez Iñesta has been intensively concerned with space and sound, music in space and space as a musical parameter. This is the context in which he began this season’s collaboration with the director Iñigo Giner Miranda and the Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich: by changing the playing position of the different sound sources (the individual musicians) and other strategies, the resulting “sound cloud” is manipulated.
An “unstable space” is thus rethought and told.
