Bogdan Roscic, President Sony Classical, said: “Wulf is one of the most experienced and respected executives in the jazz world and I have wanted to bring him to Sony for a long time. As the Sony Classical labels continue to broaden their repertoire scope, he will contribute to the depth of the roster and projects that we deliver. The last years have shown what opportunities the many faces of today’s jazz present – it’s a great time for Wulf to be joining our team.”
Wulf Müller commented on the appointment: “I am honoured and excited to be asked to start jazz activities within Sony Classical and look forward to working with the Sony teams on some of the greatest artists in today’s music world.”
The appointment is effective immediately.
