Science builds the future. Music brings it home.
A symphony of Boston’s brightest in service of something greater.
At Kendall Square Orchestra, Boston’s leading scientists, engineers, physicians, and entrepreneurs gather onstage to transform discovery into music.
Since 2018, our 96‑member ensemble, drawn from more than 50 institutions across Kendall Square, has created concerts, workshops, and pop‑up events that turn breakthroughs into shared human experiences. Each performance sparks curiosity, deepens connection, and reminds us that real innovation happens when artistry and inquiry rise together.
Over $150k raised for local causes
