About Ida Maria Grassi

The Ida Maria Grassi brand was born from the vision, courage, and determination of an extraordinary entrepreneur. Ida Maria Grassi was a woman with a dream: to create high-quality wind instruments distinguished by unmistakable Italian style.

Her journey began shortly after World War II in a small garage on Via Dezza in Milan, where she started crafting flutes and piccolos. These instruments quickly gained attention in the American market, leading to the opening of her first factory in Cinisello Balsamo.

Her true ambition, however, was to build saxophones. In the late 1950s, skilled craftsmen from a struggling saxophone factory sought employment with her. Recognising both their expertise and the opportunity, Ida Maria Grassi founded a second factory in Quarna, in the Piedmont region. This decision not only strengthened the brand but also brought economic stability to the local community.

Within a short time, the Ida Maria Grassi name became internationally recognised. Reflecting on her achievements, she once said:

“I was able to craft quality wind instruments in Italy and abroad with an Italian name, and I think I can be proud of it.”

Today, this legacy of passion, craftsmanship, and innovation lives on in every Ida Maria Grassi instrument—each one a blend of tradition, technology, and timeless Italian excellence.
