Thank you for the information. It's been a quest at this point. I did try the Tiroler Zither Club you mentioned- no one ever answers that phone number, and they seem to be no longer functioning. Will try the website you provided and hopefully will make a contact.

Are there any zither players here in the Los Angeles area? I was a student of Kings Keyes a few decades ago and since his passing have not been able to locate any other players but one in my state. I've tried contacting the German Consulate as well without any luck.

got it. Thanks!

I have a beautiful Schwarzer Perfekta harfenzither with amazingly deep resonant sound. Do you have any information on when this was made? The model # I believe is:10723. I also own an Ernst Rudolph Glier concert zither made in Markneukirchen that I've had for 30 years. Can you give me any details on...
