Martin Wenner --- The Team

After studying transverse flute and recorder in Munich, Martin Wenner began training as a flute maker at the C. Mollenhauer company in Fulda. During this time he received further training in restoration techniques through courses and volunteer internships. For three further years Martin Wenner dealt with the construction of recorders at the Küng company in Schaffhausen. In 1991 he passed his Master Craftsman Examination with distinction. The workshop for flute construction, which he founded in Singen, first specialized in the construction of German flutes as well as the restoration and repair of transverse flutes. In 1995 a move to the current workshop in Aluminiumstrasse took place. Shortly thereafter, the first silver transverse flute, the so-called Unicorn Flute ("Einhornflöte"), was presented. Head joints made of silver, gold, and wood were also added to the program. Since Spring 2002, high quality copies of recorders have been manufactured in the Singen workshop. Martin Wenner has written numerous articles about flutes and flute construction for professional journals and books.
