I associate curved soprano saxophones with Bob Wilber.  He's the only musician I know who regularly played that type of soprano. 

Wilber claimed that it was easier to keep the curved soprano in tune.  No idea if that's true or not.

 

Roscoe Mitchell played a curved soprano into the 1980s. He can be seen playing one on the cover of "L-R-G / The Maze / S II Examples".
