Church Museum
Stained-glass windows could be put on display

During a recent trip to Chicago, I came across a stained-glass exhibit. This exhibit was comprised of various stained glass windows from structures throughout the Chicago area.
The Catholic Diocese of Buffalo is in the controversial process of closing some of its most beautiful churches. These churches for years were a major part of many Buffalonians’ daily lives.
People on the waterfront redevelopment committee are in the process of planning various
points of interest to attract visitors. A museum displaying some of the stained-glass art that once graced our magnificent places of worship around Buffalo seems like an appropriate attraction. Instead of these windows being auctioned off to various collectors around the country, they could once again be enjoyed and appreciated by the very people they were created for.

"The BPO released a cd of works by Ottorino Respighi this month, featuring Church Windows, a piece that was composed for piano originally. Jeff Simon of the Buffalo News describes this piece, “Based on Gregorian themes introduced to him by his wife, it balances blazing orchestration with religious fervor in a way that superbly challenges any orchestra.” The orchestra recorded for this cd at St. Joseph’s Cathedral, and photographs of the building’s stained glass windows are the cover art."

It is available on their website, or you can find them at most local cd stores.
