MOOSMANN

Bernd Moosmann took over the old-established company of “Kohlert” in 1983 and started the new company of “Kreul & Moosmann” together with a business partner. 

Bernd Moosmann has been sole shareholder and executive director since 1987 and has traded since then under the name of “Bernd Moosmann – Meisterwerkstätte für Holzblasintrumente GmbH”. The production was originally just bassoons and contrabassoons, but in 1992 he began production of clarinets with German fingering system in B flat and A alongside the bassoons. Production was based in his father`s workshop in the historic center of Waiblingen until 1993, at which point Bernd Moosmann moved into his current premises in the “Eisental”, enterprise zone in Waiblingen, which combines production facilities, office and space for visitors in one modern building.Margrit and Bernd Moosmann with Jacko. 

The company sells its instruments in five continents and is represented at many international music fairs and congresses. 

In 2003 the company celebrated its 20th anniversary – fittingly with a gala concert of the “SWR 3 Swing Fagotett” in the “Bürgerzentrum Waiblingen”. The celebration of the 25th anniversary jubilee took place at the Musikmesse 2008 in Frankfurt.
