Reviews
"Such a wonderful experience, this museum is a hidden gem that exceeded my expectations. It's fun, engaging, and a fantastic lesson in American history. I was lucky enough to meet George Scott, and can't wait to come back to Buffalo to see his big band performing. Come alone, bring the kids, stay for 20 minutes or one hour (or two) but don't miss it!"
"A must see! This museum has it all!! I spent two hours watching, reading and LISTENING to everything. The history of Buffalo jazz includes many famous people, including Dizzy Gillespie and George Washington Jr. It's a very small place but they squeeze so much information into it. Lots of hands on so it's great for kids and adults alike. Also the Director, George, was welcoming and explained how the museum worked before I got started. I went to the Club upstairs last night (Thursdays@8pm) and it was free and so fun listening to their Big Band practicing and playing great music. There are not a lot of places you can hear that anymore; a real treat!"
"The music was fantastic. I'm here from York, Pa. To visit with my college roommate and he took us to a show last night and it was great. Keep up the good work and you all take care."
"Incredible experience and life changing for my wife. The story of this club is the very essence of music, love and people. George was an incredibly gracious host. This is one of the great treasures of Buffalo."
"The museum is WONDERFUL! Lovely, informative, full of great artifacts of Buffalo's rich history and terrific information on music history and even just on what instruments in a band sound like (aimed at kids and adults too). Monday and Thursday evenings there is free music upstairs at the old bar. A MUST for all!"
