The current manager of the workshop, Gerd Mayer, also a master organ builder, joined his father’s business as a trainee in 1957. As an organ builder, he worked in various countries, including France and the United States, and in 1966 he was the youngest German organ master craftsman ever to get his diploma at the Stuttgart Trade Corporation. His particular interest was studying organ architecture and the technology of historical organs. In 1974, Gerd Mayer succeeded his father Hugo as the business’ General Manager. His main ambition since then has been to synthesize Saarland organ tradition with modern production techniques and to continue and enhance "Mayer Organ" reputation. Due to his vast experience in the restoration of organs, especially pneumatic and mechanical instruments, the organ-building master Gerd Mayer was honoured with the title "restorer in organ building" by the Stuttgart trade corporation in May 2001.
