The Australian Doctors Orchestra (ADO) is a unique national fellowship of medical professionals who are also classically trained musicians.
Since our first concert in 1993, the orchestra has played a concert every year (except 2021) and in every state,
using each occasion to raise funds for charity.
Up to 100 medical professionals from all around Australia share two days of final rehearsals culminating in a performance on a Sunday afternoon,
featuring acclaimed soloists and providing exciting orchestral performances.
If you would like to learn more about how the ADO came to be, the founder of the ADO, Dr. Miklós Pohl, has just published his book 'Music is Medicine'
with all proceeds benefitting the not-for-profit motor neurone disease support organisation MND Victoria. To read more about the book and order it, please

The Australian Doctor's Orchestra has had a very successful year in 2025.
We performed in Geelong under the baton of Ingrid Martin and with soloist
Emily Treloar, to benefit Gateways Support Services, a not-for-profit organisation supporting children and adults with a disability or additional needs.
Next we headed further north, to perform in Sydney at the Concourse, Chatswood.
We were conducted by
Nicholas Milton, with soloist Simon Tedeschi
in support of Batten Disease Support and Research Association Australia (BDSRA Australia).
Photos from both our Sydney and Geelong concerts are available on the Fun page,
and you can view more details of the concerts on the Concerts page.
Stay tuned for more details about our concerts next year, in the Sunshine Coast on
Sunday 26 July 2026, and in Adelaide on Sunday 18 October 2026!
