The Albany Herald
Recital Given by Mr. Reid (Albany: The Albany Herald, Summer 1926.), Summer 
1926.
An appreciateve company of music lovers greeted Mr. W.A. Reid, Jr., at his 
first organ recital, given Tuesday evening at the First Baptist Church, when he 
was assisted by Mrs. O. D. Culpepper, whose exquisite soprano voice always 
delights her hearers.   
Mr. Reid made happy selections in the program he presented, ranging from 
several light numbers, which were given by request, to very difficult 
compositions. All of these he played with a sympathetic interpretation, and 
with a sureness of touch that bespeaks for him success in his chosen profession.
Mr. Reid expects to leave in September for a year's study in Syracuse, NY, and 
he will carry with him the good wishes of many friends and admirers.
Mrs. Culpepper has delighted many audiences in Albany and in other cities over 
the state, but she was never more charming than in her short program of Tuesday 
evening.
Her bird-like notes were rich and full of color.
