In May 2026 the Münchener Biennale celebrates its 20th edition!
With artistic directors Katrin Beck and Manuela Kerer at the helm, this festival for new music theatre will present international premieres, introduce new perspectives on our present-day and invite audiences as well as artists to participate in encounters, dialogue and discoveries.
We look forward to welcoming all participating artists and visitors!
Participants (m/f/d, ages 16-99, amateurs and professionals) from the fields of music and/or martial arts welcome to join the SOUNDING BODIES workshop project on 23/01—25/01/2026, in Munich
Music meets martial arts! Be part of this playful, experimental encounter and join other instrumentalists, martial artists, and combat sports enthusiasts in imagining new forms between sound and movement.
The workshop is led by the artistic team behind the production XOCHIYAOYOTL (composition: Maximiliano Soto Mayorga, staging: Amauta García and Davíd Camargo), which will premiere on 13/05/2026 as part of Münchener Biennale. Together with the workshop participants, the team reflects on performative ideas and concepts of the body for their own artistic work.
