“I cannot emphasize enough the importance of the instruments for the development as a clarinetist and musician. For more than forty years my Wurlitzer clarinets, with their clean, warm and harmonious sound, have always and in all situations been reliable tools enabling flexibility and freedom in my performance.

I remember my friends Herbert Wurlitzer and his wife Ruth with great humility, and wish to thank the current Wurlitzer family and their team, who with the greatest professionalism maintain and develop the fine Wurlitzer tradition for the future.”

The Swedish clarinetist Leif E. Hellman, previously in the Royal Orchestra at the Royal Opera in Stockholm and at the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, now active as a soloist and chamber musician, has been playing Herbert Wurlitzer Oeler Clarinet Model 100c Soloist for many years.
