It looks like Boston will be the first ensemble to cancel a China tour as a result of the Coronavirus.

The Boston Symphony Orchestra is due next week to tour Seoul, Taipei, Hong Kong and Shanghai — all cities affected by the virus.

The orchestra and the Mayor said they were monitoring the situation.

Concert halls in Hong Kong and Shanghai have been shut down. More than 130 deaths have been reported.
