Talk:C. G. Conn

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I came across this page: Conn-Selmer. Are these pages talking about the same company?

Yes and no. Conn-Selmer is a recent conglomeration/parent company formed by merging C.G. Conn with The Selmer Company. Both of these own/manage other instrument manufacturers and are in turn owned by Steinway Musical Instruments, which (obviously) has some association with Steinway Pianos. I noticed the same thing a while ago, and I left it as is because I figured with all the different manufacturers listed on the Conn-Selmer page, most of them could have pretty comprehensive articles written about them, so there was no point doing any kind of merge/redirect thing. Expanding this article is on my "get around to it sooner or later" list, although of course you're welcome to do it. Soundguy99 06:41, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Split the article?

Is anyone currently watching this page? If so, I think we should seperate this article into two. One for C. G. Conn the man and one for the company itself. Just checking. Anthony 02:04, 31 July 2007 (UTC)


I am from Elkhart, Indiana and was unaware that C.J. Conn recieved the metal of honor as his biography on wikipedia says. It's not cross referenced with this wiki article.
