To Rochesterians, the city of Buffalo is like a big, brawny cousin who restores old cars and drinks the coolest draft brews.   The Queen City's waterfront rejuvenation, passion for football, and history as a major American port have shaped the city’s cultural life in fascinating ways.  The New York Times casts a light on the journey of the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra.
