After too long an absence, musicians from The Colored Musicians Club, directed by George Scott, return with their exciting mix of jazz, blues, gospel and swing. Funds from the concert will be used to restore two historic Buffalo Landmark sites — Blessed Trinity Church and the Colored Musicians Club, part of the Michigan Street African American Heritage Corridor.
