History

This music publishing firm (not to be confused with the larger firm Kistner) was established by the composer Cyrill Kistler in Bad Kissingen, a fashionable spa town in northern Bavaria, circa 1891. While the main output of the firm was works composed by Kistler it also published works by a small number of other composers. The firm did not survive Kistler's death in 1907. In the edition of Hofmeister's Verzeichnis for 1907 under the section entitled "Verlags-Veränderungen" it was noted "Kistler, Cyrill, Selbstverlag in Bad Kissingen, jetzt: Kommissionsverl. v. C.F.W. Siegel in Leipzig."
