On May 10th, for this Mother’s Day weekend, the Longwood Symphony Orchestra will perform a concert of music full of love and warmth. Our program was inspired by the beautiful work of our community partners at Vinfen, who tirelessly support and empower members of our community living with challenges and disabilities. 

The concert will begin with a featured guest performance by Cambridge Common Voices, an inclusive choir of young adults with diverse learning challenges, who passionately reframe disability “not as deficit, but as a facet of human diversity worthy of creative exploration and appreciation.” After their inspiring performance, the Longwood Symphony Orchestra will perform a gorgeous interlude by the American composer, Florence Price, titled Adoration. Finally, the program will conclude with one of the most beautiful and romantic works of all time - Sergei Rachmaninoff’s 2nd Symphony. 

Please join us for a lovely evening together!
