Yes, a Willis Orch. Oboe sound is thinner - there are others that are extremely pungent, particularly the Hope-Jones variety.
The volume of a Solo example might tend to be louder simply due to the (possibly) higher pressure, but the final result is entirely at the whim of the voicer I think. An over-loud Orchestral Oboe might be a rather unmusical effect?
