Under the direction of Music Director and Conductor Jonathan McPhee, the Longwood Symphony Orchestra launches its 26th season with a concert that will dazzle and delight!

Arthur Honegger Pacific 231
Roy Harris Symphony No. 3
Johannes Brahms Symphony No. 3

This concert will help raise funds and awareness for the LSO's October Community Partner, Families with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (www.fsma.org).

Families of SMA was founded in 1984 with the purpose of raising funds to advance research to find a treatment and cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and to support all those affected by SMA. To date FSMA has raised and invested almost $40 million towards SMA research. Our support comes from numerous individual donations and fundraising events held by volunteer families and our chapters.

Our successful results and progress from basic research to drug discovery programs to clinical trials provides real hope for families and patients.
