About us
We build all components ourselves
Standing in a long-lasting, venerable tradition of organ building, we build all parts of an organ as much as possible in a professional, ambitious form ourselves. This goes even to manufacturing pipes, which we almost invariably cast, craft, and voice by ourselves.
At the moment, we manufacture the wooden pipes in the company of fine tradition of E. Hammer, whereas we produce the metal pipes in Windesheim (Gebr.Oberlinger).
The company in Hannover is managed by our managing director and organ builder Georg Schloetmann.
Our managing director and organ builder Stephan Kirschhoch is in charge of the organ company in Windesheim (Gebr,Oberlinger). He also assumes the entire responsibility of our companies.

Manufacturing pipes in Windesheim
Ralf Zuck, an employee of our highly productive metal pipe shop in Windesheim
Voicing
Christoph Raab, head of voicing. He confers the characteristic, vocal sound to each pipe and at the same time is always aware of the harmony of the whole ensemble: an art developed in a long number of years. Christoph Raab has been voicing organs for more than 25 years, and many important Oberlinger organs bear witness of his competence.
Here, Organ Builder Georg Schloetmann brings in his expertise and will voice all pipes himself in our northern area of operations.
Cabinet-makerīs workshop
Karl-Heinz Mathieu, cabinet-maker. He has already been with Orgelbaugesellschaft Reichenstein for 45 years and organizes the manufacture in the firm. His eyes detect the slightest faults when buying wood or leather, and his rich experience continuously helps us in upgrading our products.
He also supports our northern area of operations in the choice of wood.
Organ mechanics and building compact organs
Ulrich Plenz, manager of our mechanics- and compact organ shop. For more than 30 years he has been taking care that even the smallest parts move easily and failure-free, and that hundreds and thousands of parts work perfectly together.
Electrical equipment
Erwin Pleitz, electrician. Organ building itself covers already a large field of knowledge. Due to a number of additional qualifications organ builders like Erwin Pleitz see to it that everything functions correctly. Electrical equipment
Soundboard,keyboards,bellows
Timo Nagelschmitt, organ builder with experience and future business economist has been staff member in our firm for 25 years and builds soundboards, keyboards, and bellows.
Toe boards and wooden pipes
Friedolin Hehn cares for putting the pipes as they should i.e. like "organ pipes". This seems to be simple, it is, however, an art apart; for each pipe needs its necessary wind and the space to sing free and undisturbed. Toe boards and wooden pipes
