Welcome Backstage
We introduce you to the band members
We are all musicians, and this passion is at the heart of everything we do. We are just as happy to equip renowned professionals with first-class instruments as we are to provide beginners with expert advice and support in choosing the right instrument and accessories.
From classical music to jazz, from punk to techno – thanks to the diverse experience of the team at DIE HOLZBLÄSER, we cover every style of music and every ability! We’ve been doing it this way for almost 40 years and that’s what sets us apart.
We are with you every step of the way: before the purchase, during the purchase and after the purchase. And for many years to come!

pablo Otto
Woodwind instrument makerI have been playing the saxophone since I was 12 years old and have always had great fun doing it. Because I always wanted to do something manual, it wasn’t a difficult decision to complete my training as a woodwind instrument maker here, which I successfully completed in 2024.

Andreas Schmucker
