HKCORL Music Night – work-life balance via Music sharing and appreciation (4 July, Friday)

Local

The event will be a unique platform for Fellows and Members from the College of Otorhinolaryngologists or from other Academy Colleges to engage in a more informal setting, performing and sharing the music they love.
The music shared will include Acapella singing, Chinese musical instruments, Violin, Acoustic Guitar, Pianos, Jazz music, and Full Bands. 

Within the current healthcare framework, otolaryngologists face significant work pressures and challenges. Their responsibilities go beyond handling urgent emergencies; they also involve coordinating medical resources across departments and managing the emotional needs of patients and their families. Such occupational stress can negatively impact a doctor's mental health, potentially leading to burnout and decreased performance.
Music plays a powerful role in mental health and well-being. It has been shown to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression by promoting relaxation and emotional expression. Listening to or playing music can trigger the release of dopamine and serotonin, neurotransmitters associated with pleasure and mood regulation. Additionally, music therapy is widely used to support individuals with mental health conditions, helping them process emotions, improve communication, and enhance overall well-being. It can also aid in cognitive function, memory retention, and social bonding, making it a valuable tool for mental health care. The College of Otorhinolaryngologists held its first Music Night in 2015, where participants shared vinyl records utilizing high-fidelity sound equipment. Subsequent College events also include highlight performances from Otolaryngologists featuring both Western and Chinese musical ensembles.

Such initiatives also reflect the medical community's commitment to cultural endeavors but also emphasize the significance of pursuing a healthy lifestyle that seamlessly integrates culture and healthcare.
These events have been very well received within our College as well as by friends from our sister Colleges.
 
Since the formation of our HKCORL Young Fellows Committee (YFC) in 2022, several intimate Music sharing sessions have been organized to fulfil demands and to promote doctors’ well-being and moral within our College.
However, limited by our budget as being the smallest College in the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine, our prior music sharing sessions are of very small scales, engaging only around 20 doctors each.
 
To organize a Music-sharing Night at the Foyer of the Hong Kong Academy of Medicine Jockey Club Building, targeting 40 fellows or trainees from the College of Otorhinolaryngologists as well as from other invited Colleges.
This will also serve as a part of the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the Hong Kong College of Otorhinolaryngologists.
