The sound of the flute has a deep connection to spirituality and healing that arguably goes back further than any other instrument in human history.
So, we were delighted to have professional flautist Teneille Douglas perform at Robina Hospital recently as part of our International Womenβs Day exhibition.
βFor me the flute is emotional, it brings out the happiness and the sadness," Teneille said.
"It has a large range and at times can get quite strenuous playing for hours at a time, but I love its different tonations.β
Teneille also gave a special performance in the calming Palliative Care garden courtyard playing a selection of well-known popular songs for patients, family and staff.
βI know that music is healing and I myself have been in hospital for extended amounts of time, so I know how much joy it can bring, not just to the patients but to the family.β
