Theo Dollmann

Theo Dollmann was the sales representative for Schott Music, the famed music publisher located in Mainz Germany. He joined the company in 1939 and continued to work for the company past his retirement.

He also recalled meeting and getting to know some of the composers that worked with Schott’s, such as Carl Orff. His was a life full with music.
