| Inspirated by Sitar, Sarod and Sarangi, which I got acquainted to in India in the 70ties, and the demand perceivable at the medivial markets held in Germany, I was determined to develope musical instruments incited by historical ways of construction for present needs. In the first years of my activity I made a large variety of instruments mainly for music bands of the medivial scene, who realised their conception > |

of design and sound properties in cooperation with me. Since some years I build harps mainly in own and historical way of construction. The most of my instruments are constructed totaly by me and developed further over the years. In this way some fully developed standard-models originated, which I gave names too. In case of individual wishes I also build on order. The design of the particular

| instrument will be outlined in this instant according to a settlement with the customer, possibly generating totaly new forms. According to centuries-old traditions I handmake harps, psalters, harpsichords, spinetts, virginals, cisters and Hurdygurdies as well as organettos, small organs and clavichords. I favour nativ woods like spruce, maple, walnut or fruittrees. Strings for the instruments are computed individualy. The plans are generated computeraided, so it is also possible to process photorealistic 3D views for larger projects like harpsichords, clavichords and organs, for a preview of the look at the destined site. |
