Founded in 1982 and named for the Longwood Medical Area, the organization combines performance with community health initiatives, aiming to support health-related nonprofit causes through concert programming that emphasizes diversity and artistic excellence. The orchestra operates two main programs: a Healing Art of Music series that uses its four subscription concerts to raise funds for medically underserved communities via partner organizations, and LSO On Call, which delivers free chamber music performances to hospitals, nursing homes, and other healthcare facilities.

Located in Boston, Massachusetts, the LSO serves a community intersection of the arts and healthcare, aligning its activities with nonprofit collaborations and philanthropic partnerships. Recent leadership changes include appointments of an Executive Director and an Operations Manager, reflecting ongoing organizational development. The organization participates in the broader regional classical music landscape, alongside peers such as the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Pro Arte Chamber Orchestra of Boston, while maintaining a distinctive focus on music’s role within health care and community service.
