Masters of wind
Since 1975 Ripa has been synonymous with excellence in the craftsmanship of clarinets and wind instruments. Here the ancient knowledge of the masters blends with the continuous search for perfection, which is embodied in patents that have made the sound of its instruments unique: round and unmistakable.
Ripa clarinets are the highest expression of skilled craftsmanship: acoustic physics, fine carpentry, goldsmithing, and precision mechanics come together in instruments of extraordinary beauty and exceptional acoustics. Clarinets intended for an audience of professionals and enthusiasts who demand the utmost in sound quality and instrument handling.
Nothing is left to chance: after careful selection of the best woods, each piece is turned and perfected by hand by master craftsmen. Only once perfection is achieved is it signed. The result is a classic sound, homogeneous in all registers and projective.
Thanks to our Masters, every breath of breath is transformed into enchantment.
