Notes

  1. ^ a b c d e The Town Hall in Philadelphia, also known as the "Scottish Rite Temple" – located at 150 North Broad Street (NWC or Broad and Race Streets) – was designed by architect Horace William Castor (1870–1966). The building opened in 1926 and, after 55 years, was demolished in 1983 to make way for a parking garage. The facility housed a 1,692 seat auditorium with bright resonant acoustics that were well-suited for high fidelity recordings. The Philadelphia Orchestra, under both Leopold Stokowski and Eugene Ormandy recorded there.

  3. ^ a b Wilfred Holcombe (aka Bill Holcombe, Wilford Lawshe Holcombe Jr.; 1924–2010), from Trenton, New Jersey, was an arranger and composer for recording dates and symphony orchestras and, for many years, pursued a parallel career as a professional woodwind doubler.
