History

Music publishing firm founded by Alfred Coppenrath in Regensburg in 1855. After his death in 1887 control of the company passed to his son-in-law Heinrich Pawelek. Pawelek was succeeded by his son Franz Carl Mayer in 1930 who in turn was succeeded by Hans Geiselberger in 1939. Notable acquisitions included the local publishing companies Johann Georg Boessenecker (1913) and Fritz Gleichauf (1938). The company specialized in vocal and instrumental music for use in Catholic church services. In 2008 Coppenrath was acquired by Carus-Verlag, a church music specialist publisher near Stuttgart, founded in 1972.
