History
The firm was founded in Munich by Joseph Aibl (1802-1834), a lithographer who had studied with Theobald Boehm. At that time, the firm also sold instruments. Upon his death in 1834, his widow took over management of the company. The firm's management again changed hands in 1837, this time to Eduard Spitzweg (1811-1884). His son Eugen (1840-1914) acquired the smaller Munich publishers Falter & Sohn (1888) and Alfred Läuterer (1892) but ultimately sold the firm to Universal Edition in 1904. Composers published by the Aibl firm include Theobald Boehm, Hans von Bülow, Peter Cornelius, Joseph Rheinberger, Alexander Ritter, Max Reger, and Richard Strauss.
