About the Longwood Symphony Orchestra
The Longwood Symphony Orchestra was established in 1982 by members of the Harvard Medical School community. The dual mission of the LSO is to provide opportunities for musicians in the medical professions to perform works of musical diversity and artistic excellence while supporting health-related non-profit organizations.

In this way, the LSO utilizes music as a healing force to bring the community together. Thousands of people have benefited each year from LSO performances through its "Healing Art of Music" program. Since 1991, the orchestra has helped raise over $700,000 for the medically underserved, by performing every concert as a benefit for a medical charity in greater Boston. Today, the orchestra is 90 members strong. The orchestra ranks musically among the top community orchestras in Greater Boston.

Guest artists of the Longwood Symphony are drawn from the rich community of internationally recognized artists that live in and around New England. They include violinists Lynn Chang, Irina Muresanu, and Vali Phillips; cellists Yo-Yo Ma and Clancy Newman, sopranos Joanna Porackova and Diana McVey; baritones Mark Aliapoulios and Stephen Salters, and pianists Dr. Richard Kogan, Hung-Kuan Chen and Randall Hodgkinson, among many others.    << Back
