ED Musos
The ED Musos are a group of health care workers from Emergency Departments in Australia and Aotearoa New Zealand. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we turned to making virtual music together to lighten our moods, connect with others and to give us the strength to show up to work each day. As lockdowns lifted, the group transitioned to in-person performance at emergency medicine conferences and events.
Musicus Medicus
The NSW Doctors Orchestra is a classical orchestra of doctors and medical students from all areas of NSW who come together at least annually to play in aid of charities in both the arts and medicine.
The Australian Doctors Orchestra
The Australian Doctors Orchestra (ADO) was founded by Hobart plastic surgeon and violinist Dr Miki Pohl. He had been intrigued by the disproportionate number of doctors playing in chamber orchestras. He saw the formation of a doctors’ orchestra as an exciting prospect, and his idea became a reality with our first concert in Melbourne in 1993.
