The Bogenhauser Künstlerkapelle was a German
recorder consort. It was founded 1890 in
Munich and existed until World War II.
Members were the sculpturers Georg Petzold and professor Heinrich Düll, the architect Sedlmaier, the Drs. Rentsch and Aichinger as well as the musician Josef Wagner. The consort played on original recorders, supplemented by a
guitar and
kettledrums. The Kapelle performed in the Residenztheater and the
Deutsches Museum in Munich. Their music was broadcast by radio. The consort was probably the first German recorder consort of modern time.
