About Schwarz
In 1679, the Schwarz family in Molln began production of Jaw Harps. “For 13 generations, the company has been in continuous family ownership. By expanding the production assortment, we have been able to consolidate our market position to this day “, emphasizes company boss Karl Schwarz.
The Jaw Harp is considered an ancient folk instrument. Already Celts and Romans used this lovable musical instrument with the strange buzzing tones, which was used as a cult instrument for necromancy, for example, in primitive peoples.
In its original form of bamboo, the Jaw Harp is still widespread in Southeast Asia, Indonesia and Oceania.
The stronghold of the Jaw Harp can be found in the market town of Molln in Upper Austria.
