Wurlitzer is one of the oldest and most respected names in the music industry. The Rudolph Wurlitzer Co. began in Cincinnati in 1856 and went on to worldwide recognition for its pianos, theater organs and jukeboxes. For more than 130 years, Wurlitzer was, as the company slogan said, “The Name That Means Music to Millions.”
As with many Cincinnati institutions, Wurlitzer had German roots.
