Hamburg-based photographer Peter Hundert was given the privilege to portray the heroes of Hamburg’s new Elbphilharmonie, this most sophisticated and versatile concert hall.
With his book “BACKSTAGE Elbphilharmonie” he takes the viewer with him on a journey behind the scenes of this remarkable place: onto and behind the stage, into the technical sections, to the roof and into artist’s dressing rooms; to rehearsals, sound checks and into shows. To after-work drinks and late-night grand-organ tuning and so much more.
His work is not dedicated to artists alone, but also to all those who make the miracle “Elbphilharmonie” possible day by day: his witty, kaleidoscopic portraits and original quotes pay homage to all the hall’s protagonists – from world stars to window cleaners.
