    In homage to the Anatomy/Academy exhibition, doctors and nurses from Philadelphia’s finest medical communities trade in their scalpels for bows as the Philadelphia Doctors’ Chamber Orchestra comes to PAFA for a special evening performance. This group will perform selected classical works, including  Brahms' Symphony No. 3, Third Movement, Bach's Double Violin Concerto and Two Movements from Soiree Musicale of Benjamin Britten, Cavalaria Rusticana of Mascagni, Stravinsky Suite for Small Orchestra, Aria from Puccini's Tosca. They will also be joined by the Chestnut Hill Choir for a rendition of Die Fledermaus by Johann Strauss and Ave Verum by Mozart. Come early and see the Anatomy/Academy exhibition, then stay and revel in the beautiful music created by yet another moment of intersection between art and medicine.
