Canisius and the BPO Connection

Canisius College has had a unique relationship with the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra for many years. The BPO on Campus continues this college tradition when the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra is joined by faculty member Persis Vehar. Canisius at Kleinhans gives Canisius students the opportunity to perform in the Mary Seaton Room prior to the BPO concert in the Main Hall of Kleinhans Music Hall. The Informally-Formal Chamber Concerts provide evenings of fine desserts, delightful conversation and wonderful chamber music with BPO musicians.
