These premium-quality recorders from Switzerland were originally the product of a unique cooperative venture between Andreas Küng of the Küng recorder workshop and Heinz Ammann, a noted independent recorder maker who was for years the head of recorder design and production at the H. C. Fehr workshop. Effective January 2006, Ammann is no longer involved in the MARSYAS enterprise, which is now wholly owned and operated by the two brothers who are principals of the Küng workshop.
