If you know of any Schreiber instruments for sale or have any information or photos on Schreiber please contact me. - Eric Totman
Brief History on Louis Schreiber
Louis Schreiber was born in Coblenz, Germany on January 13th 1827 and died in Los Angles, California in 1910. In 1864 Louis immigrated from Germany to the United States of America. In 1858 he established the Schreiber Cornet Manufacturing CO. in New York and was in business there until he retired in 1883.
Louis was a cornet virtuoso and inventor. He was arguably one of the greatest cornet virtuoso of all times. Major composers penned scores tailored for his virtuosity and he transformed orchestral architecture with his unique invention.
