Cristian Axt is an Italian-Argentine composer, music producer, recording engineer, and pianist based in Vienna, born in Buenos Aires.

 

His works have been performed worldwide in concert halls, theaters, and on radio, television, and streaming platforms.

Renowned for blending genres such as contemporary, neoclassical, cinematic, ambient, and experimental, Cristian’s music encompasses symphonic, chamber, and ballet compositions.

 

Inspired by Vienna’s rich musical heritage and environmental excellence, he founded Green Affaire, an organization dedicated to promoting environmental awareness through innovative concerts, audiovisual productions, and collaborations with leading European artists.

 

In 2022, Cristian partnered with producer Arpad Hy of redpmusic GmbH Austria to launch Waves Affaire Music Production - Vienna. As its creator and CEO, he bridges European classical music with contemporary global sounds, with a particular focus on Latin American performers and repertoire.

 

His most recent achievements include the premiere of his Piano Concerto No. 1 and the reprogramming of his symphonic work Camino a la peña at the National Concert Hall of Argentina (Palacio Libertad – formerly CCK); the recording, production, and release of LAYERS and MOTO, and the world premiere of RUNWAY TO THE STARS at SALLE PLEYEL in Paris — neoclassical compositions created in collaboration with renowned violinist Yury Revich / OLARIO and recorded on a 1709 Stradivarius.

 

Regarding his activity as a Music Producer, at the head of Waves Affaire, during 2024 it is worth highlighting the release of the albums PIAZZOLLA QR by the Grammy-winning QUINTETO REVOLUCIONARIO and the debut album of the TOCUYITO TRIO, celebrated with a concert broadcast on Austrian National Radio ORF.

​

In 2025, he joined the Sony Music Germany production team alongside Arpad Hy, arranging and producing songs for Abor & Tynna’s debut album, associated with the Eurovision Song Contest.

​

Through his innovative projects and global collaborations, Cristian Axt continues to redefine the intersections of classical and contemporary music.
