A sleek archive room showcasing the history of Kleinhans and the couple responsible for the hall opened Thursday in what was once two adjoining storage rooms crammed with boxes of papers.
Rex Ryan, LeSean McCoy, Jack Eichel, Dan Bylsma – as usual the Bills and Sabres are grabbing all the headlines. But I think our other “team,” the BPO, has made the biggest moves this season.
A colorful concerto commissioned by the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra is in the running for a Latin Grammy award.
Sanders believes that newcomers and longtime supporters of the BPO alike are going to love this performance. He said, “This concert will blow away any preconceived notions you may or may not have about the BPO. Don’t miss out!”
Louis P. Ciminelli, the chairman of the BPO’s board of directors, is turning 60. And he is celebrating his milestone birthday in a big way – by giving the BPO a million dollars.
If the rest of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra’s Classics concerts this season are anywhere near as good as the opening concert was, we are in for some real excitement.
The verdict is in and music fans say the new seats at Kleinhans Music Hall are a welcome and long overdue addition.
To kick-start the Crescendo Campaign, Louis Ciminelli, BPO board of trustees chair and LPCiminelli chairman, announced he is making a $1 million gift to the fund.
It is a very safe bet that almost everyone would agree that the Chinese pianist Lang Lang is currently the one undisputed superstar in the classical musical firmament.
For the last year, the orchestra has been welcoming guest concertmasters. And they have finally named Ludwig’s successor. He is Dennis Kim, a violinist with a cosmopolitan background.
