Organ builder Ernst Seifert was a German organ builder based in Bergisch Gladbach .
history
Ernst Seifert (I.) (1855–1928) was the founder of the Seifert organ building workshop in Cologne. From this the three later organ building companies Seifert emerged.
Ernst Seifert (II.) (1891–1964), one of the sons of Ernst Seifert (I.), started his own business in Bergisch Gladbach in 1936. His company should not be confused with the Ernst Seifert company in Cologne-Mannsfeld , which his brother Walter Seifert continued under the name of his father.
Romanus Seifert, the third son of Ernst Seifert (I.), founded the Romanus Seifert & Son workshop in Kevelaer , which still exists today . So it came about that for a time there were three different organ building companies with the name Seifert. All three built organs independently with different loading systems after the war.
After the death of Ernst Seifert (II.), The founder of the Bergisch Gladbach company in 1964, his son Helmut Seifert continued to run the company for a few years until he closed the company in Bergisch Gladbach at the end of the 1960s and the Cologne parent company Seifert took over.
Characteristic of the instruments from the Bergisch-Gladbach company Seifert are the electropneumatic pocket drawers and the rounded shape of the console , which means that the outermost keys of the top manual have been slightly cut off to the rear.
