Best Answer

Some, and maybe all DeVillier saxes were made by Dorfler and Jorka and are similar to Keilwerths. One quote you may find says:

" Possibly made by Dörfler and Jörka, ex-Keilwerth employees producing horns also in Nauheim, circa 1950-1968? There are several stencil lines whose keywork and hardware are indentical to that used by Keilwerth over various production periods, but which may have been made by D and J. These horns play very similarly to Keilwerths of the same period, with a very similar voice. The major evident difference between the horn that seem to be by D and J is in the taper of the neck, and its acoustical dimensions; despite a much smaller neckpipe opening, for e.g., the [putatively] D and J horns play with a very Keilwerth resonance & "smoky," tangy character. Thanks to Stephan Boesken for posting info on Dörfler and Jörka to the web."
