NSO Sound Health Presents
Sound Health Fridays
Join us for Sound Health Fridays at The REACH for activities prior to 11:30 a.m. NSO coffee concerts.
In Partnership with the National Institutes of Health
The NSO presents an annual full orchestra concert at the NIH each September. In addition, the NSO arranges for musicians to perform in small groups at the NIH.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the nation's medical research agency — making important discoveries that improve health and save lives.
