Members of the Longwood Symphony Orchestra performing at Dana-Farber.

Midday Melodies is a monthly concert series designed to bring the therapeutic power of music to our community of patients and families, as well as our faculty and staff.

Led by artistic director, Corrine Byrne, along with two Dana-Farber physicians who are also accomplished musicians, these live performances aim to create moments of calm, connection, and reflection. Listeners are invited to stay for a full performance or just a few minutes between work or medical appointments to pause, listen, and recharge.
