Organization

Founded in Boston in 1982, the Longwood Symphony Orchestra is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that uniquely combines music, medicine, and public service. Named after Boston’s Longwood Medical Area, the LSO is composed primarily of highly trained musicians who are also medical professionals, and its programs focus on combining the healing arts of music and medicine. Throughout its 30 years of healing the community, the LSO has worked to execute its mission of performing concerts of musical diversity and excellence, while supporting health-related nonprofit organizations. Music Director Ronald Feldman leads the LSO in four concerts at Jordan Hall, and through the LSO's Healing Art of Music program, each concert helps raise awareness and funds for a nonprofit Community Partner.
