Orsi Professional Brass Soprano Clarinet | First Owner | 2016 | Consignment

This professional Orsi B-flat clarinet is a special instrument that you very rarely come across. The clarinet comes from the original owner and was purchased new in 2016 for €2,550.

Unlike the traditional wooden clarinet, this model is made of brass. This results in a direct response, powerful projection, and a bright tonal character. Due to its unique construction, this Orsi is particularly interesting for musicians looking for a metal clarinet, jazz clarinet, or a professional instrument with a powerful and distinctive sound. This type of clarinet is especially popular in jazz, Dixieland, and light music, but it is also a special and striking instrument in concert bands and brass bands.

The combination of the gold-lacquered body, silver-plated mechanism, and beautifully engraved bell also gives this clarinet a very luxurious appearance.

Why choose a brass clarinet?
