Sven-Kristian Wolf is a photographer working in Salzburg and Vienna, photographing musicians from all over the world. As a former cultural manager, punk and jazz musician, he is familiar with the cultural scene; his background enables him to show classical music in such a way that the message and magic is also understood by people outside the classical world.
He is currently working on a photography project titled Orchestrapunk, aimed at building a bridge to people who haven’t yet connected with classical music. As he describes it, he photographs orchestras through the eyes of a punk.
The project has been ongoing for 14 months now, and Wolf has already worked with Isata Kanneh-Mason, Simon Rattle, Antonio Pappano, Ivan Fischer, Jonas Kaufmann, the Carnegie Hall, the Salzburg Festival, the Elbphilharmonie and many others.
