Penzel-Mueller

See also the Penzel-Mueller Albert System pages.

The circa-1949 catalog PDF attached below shows the following models:

  • Super Brilliante, listing at $300
  • Brilliante: $250
  • Artist: $231.50
  • Empire: $199
  • Bel Canto: $179.50


The Penzel Pacemaker might have been made by Penzel-Mueller or might have been after the company closed. Because Mueller is not listed, I have given it a separate page.

There were some clarinets made in cooperation between Penzel-Mueller and Pruefer. See one here.

These pictures show a P-M with special keys for forked fingerings, articulated C#/G# and the left Ab/Eb pinkie key.
