Fundraiser At Club Diablo

Here's a great reason to check out one of the hottest clubs in the city. This is the place where the movies are projected onto the musicians on stage as they play.

What started with the father has continued with the son. Griffis III’s work is starting to appear in spots in Buffalo and now, to see one of his works, you need look no further than Forest Lawn Chapel.

Though they only began in 2002, the 18-person Vocalis Chamber Choir have already made a name for themselves. Vocalis’ first CD was praised by the Buffalo News, is played regularly on WNED-FM, and they perform regularly through WNY, Toronto, and Pittsburgh.

I spoke to owner, Oded Rauvenpoor, who told me that the decision to close came when he was at a crossroads.
