Ludwig Güttler has been called "the Pavarotti of wind instruments" and the "King of Trumpets," but he is well-known for more than his playing of the trumpet and corno da caccia. Güttler founded three ensembles to perform 17th and 18th century wind literature on period instruments: the New Leipziger Bach-Collegium (1976), the Ludwig Güttler Wind Ensemble (1978), and the Virtuosi Saxoniae (1985). He began recording in the early '80s, first on the Capriccio label and then for Berlin Classics, often with his duo partner, organist Friedrich Kircheis. Güttler has discovered unknown works in libraries and archives. Numerous awards have been bestowed on him, including for being a key figure in the restoration of Dresden's Frauenkirche. This seemingly indefatigable artist has a catalog of more than 100 recordings. In allen meinen Taten contains excerpts from some of his favorite recordings plus 2022 recordings of a few of his favorite chorales.
Ludwig Güttler has also released music as a member of Blechbläserensemble Ludwig Güttler, Leipzig Bach Collegium, and Virtuosi Saxoniae.
