History

This company operated in Cologne and Munich from about 1910. The name refers to Des Knaben Wunderhorn ("The boy's magic horn: old German songs") which is a collection of German folk poems and songs edited by Arnim and Brentano, and published in 1805-1808. The book was a favorite in German-speaking Europe. It is best known in the musical world as the source for Mahler's settings (1892-1901).

Wunderhorn Verlag published works by contemporary composers such as Joseph Haas and Sandor Jemnitz, in addition to historical works by WF Bach. The Cologne company was related, at least from the 1920s to Tischer & Jagenberg, as a vereinte Verlag (united or joint publisher) (they may have purchased T&J and used it as an imprint. In any case, moving T&J's post-1924 plate table to here, as in similar cases for now.)

The current Wunderhorn-Verlag in Cologne is a literary publisher founded quite recently.
