Special edition for my London readers

I want you to know that Music Director Jonathan McPhee and the Longwood Symphony have departed on their first international tour to London! During this tour, our musician-physicians will share their musical and medical excellence with colleagues abroad.

This is a quite good orchestra comprising doctors and others from the Boston medical community. (For example, the principal clarinetist is Mark Gebhardt, our Chief of Orthopaedics.) If you are able to attend, I think you will enjoy it. Please pass this information along to others. (If you go, please introduce yourself and tell them that you read my blog!)
