Studio 49: German-built instruments since 1949
Founded in 1949, hence the 49 in their name, Studio 49 has crafted impeccable percussion instruments with the dedication of German ingenuity. From the company's early days of repurposing a washing machine motor for instrument construction to their now stunning collection of xylophones, glockenspiels, marimbas, mallets, and more, Studio 49 continues to offer young learners and concertizing professionals alike the right tools for the job. In truth, they owe much of their inspiration to Carl Orff, a composer and music educator who conceptualized Orff Schulwerk, an approach to music education that involves movement and music in a natural and congenial environment. When you invest in a Studio 49 instrument, you invest in inspiration, education, and creativity that will endlessly encourage musical exploration.
