My father Joe Techner, age 16, taking trumpet lessons from famous instructor Donald S. Reinhardt at his Philadelphia studio in 1941. I seem to recall that it was made around the time of the Pearl Harbor attack. Reinhardt was known for his "Pivot Method" instruction. My father was a professional trumpet player for 35 years. Photos are of my father in his senior year Olney High School. Also, a 8 x 10 photo of Reinhardt signed and given to my dad by Reinhardt. The recording was professionally transferred from a very worn 78 acetate home recording disc by George Blood of Safe Sound Archive using the Cedar system..
