"The Orsi Varese professional wood clarinet is the result of a close collaboration between Ermenegildo Perin, owner of the Orsi company in Italy, and John Weir, a former director of research and development at Conn-Selmer. Jointly manufactured by Orsi in Italy and the new Orsi and Weir facility in Canada, the Orsi Varese is available in two versions, the American taper and the Euro taper. Exceptional playing qualities, outstanding craftsmanship, and superior wood curing characterize this new model. Barrels and Bells available separately in a variety of tapers and exotic woods."
