Georg Jann

Georg Jann (17 January 1934 – 12 February 2019)[1] was a German organ builder.

In 1948, he began his apprenticeship in Potsdam with organ builder Alexander Schuke.

He moved to Switzerland in 1961, three years later to West Berlin, to work as voicer for Alexander Schuke.

He then handed the company to his son Thomas Jann, while Georg relocated to Portugal and established a new organ pipe workshop, "Orguian", along with two former employees.

At the end of 2005, he handed this company to Detlef Jann, his oldest son.
