Doctor by Day, Pianist by Day: Christmas Carols at RNSH As part of the Royal North Shore Hospital (RNSH) Festival of Music, the foyer came alive with festive cheer, showcasing the remarkable talents of staff, volunteers and associates.
“Performers really enjoy the experience and are keen to return, and staff and visitors love seeing their colleagues perform,” she said. “A woman attending RNSH daily for radiation therapy travelled long distances each day. She stayed to listen to the music every day and told me it really helped her through a difficult time.” Chief Executive Anthony Schembri reflected on the festival’s impact. “It was wonderful to see music bring connection and warmth to our hospital community,” he said.
Highlights included piano performances by medical oncologist David Chan and vocals from ward clerk Annette Edwards, alongside jazz and acappella acts. The performances were captured by Markus Kung Photography. Now in its ninth year, the Festival of Music is organised by Susan Day OAM, volunteer with RNSH Arts and Culture.
