senator alto

[heinz]

Hi,
anybody knows anything about SENATOR saxofones?
I just bought an alto at a very good price as second instrument
and I am still astonished by the good sound and intonation.

I can't find any information about the company, could be of German or Austrian make, probably 60s, but I have no idea.

Thanks.
Heinz

You can thank Sarge at www.worldwidesax.com for this.

The Senator "made in Germany" horns were made by Max or Richard Keilwerth -- they're the lesser known brothers of Julius Keilwerth.

Check out the Julius Keilwerth website at www.keilwerth.com
Check out Richard Keilwerth's website at www.keilwerth.de (it's in German)
Max Keilwerth died several years ago and there's no mention of him at the company he last worked with, www.hohnerusa.com
