Dietmar Dürk earned his Master Craftsmanship Diploma from the Handwerkskammer (Handicraft Guild) in Koblenz, certifying his ability to make any brass instrument. As recognition for high scores in his theoretical and practical exams, Dietmar was awarded a government grant for achievement by the Stiftung für Begabtenförderung (Foundation for the Support of Talent).
This provided the ideal basis upon which to found his own business in 1987. The company quickly established itself in the music world, serving all levels of musicians from amateur to professional.
The discriminating clientele also demand a high level of service after the sale and in Bingen-Dromersheim, that is exactly what they receive – carried out with passion and precision. Every instrument purchased here comes with a free annual service-check guarantee for 30 years.
An enterprise without vision is like a tree without water.
This is a part of our philosophy, especially when it comes to building instruments that are a little different, a touch more beautiful, a bit more advanced – progressive, yet traditional.
