Rampone & Cazzani have been making wind instruments in the hills above Lago D'Orta for a long time but only recently have been re-discovered because of their ability to imitate the coveted sound of the Vintage Saxophones of the past.

A recent visit to the factory convinced us that the people at R & C are onto something which is of significant interest to saxophonists: they are making a hand-made instrument which apparently accounts for the large number of players who have been utterly delighted by this latest generation of Rampone & Cazzani saxophones.
 

Rampone & Cazzani is proud to show its strong attachment to the unique village of Quarna Sotto, their home above Lake Orta in the Northwest part of the Italian Alps.

The engraving on the "Due Voci" or "Two Voices" series pays homage to the 2 churches located in Quarna at the same time reflects the artisans of the past who found it very advantageous to combine the 2 voices of Brass and Sterling Silver in the making of a saxophone.

The result is quite beautiful to see but especially to play. The sound is glorious with the warmth inspired by Brass and the added projection and complex palette of the Sterling Silver.

The Rampone & Cazzani "Two Voices" Series - an ideal combination which has to be experienced to be believed !!
