Schagerl Meisterinstrumente 5.27

Schagerl Instruments are the perfect synthesis of traditional craftmanship, innovative design and have all the attributes to serve the needs of musicians of all genres and levels. Schagerl Instruments are played all over the world: in great Symphony Orchestras and Ensembles, by great soloists, in brass bands and musical schools.

The Schagerl company is without doubt one of the most successful makers of brass instruments in the world. Since the foundation of the company in the year 1961, Schagerl set great value upon the intensive cooperation with the musicians. At the time, Karl Schagerl sen. was already concentrating on improving and developing brass instruments. When Karl Schagerl jun. took over the company in 1989, the first custom made instruments were introduced and made in a small production series. Within a short time, Schagerl instruments were played in the greatest orchestras worldwide. The trumpets were developed with input from Prof. Hans Gansch (former Principal Trumpet Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra), the fine trombone models were built with the help of Othmar Gaiswinkler and Wolfgang Pfistermüller (Vienna Symphony Orchestra).

Until the present day the company Schagerl is a family-owned enterprise. In addition to the fine trumpet and trombone models, a number of great Schagerls saxophones is available, too. A close and amicable contact is one of the most important points in the Schagerl philosophy. The cooperation and experiences of instrument maker Robert Schagerl and the musicians form the basis of the instrument making at Schagerl.
