Music in the OR in Hawaii

I've written many times about my mentor, Dr. Arthur Harvey. He has been a believer of the power of music during surgery for a long, long time. Enjoy this article excerpt from the http://starbulletin.com/2005/05/20/news/story2.html
Dr. Arthur Harvey played classical music on an electric piano at St. Francis Medical Center's new Laser Tear Duct Center yesterday as Dr. Jorge Camara, in colorful hat, operated on patient Benjamin Semana's blocked tear duct and Dr. Samuel Wong observed at right. Wong, the Honolulu Symphony's outgoing music director, is also an ophthalmologist.

I think it matters the completion, and not the instrument. The choice of instrument is only in the eyes of the player. Listeners are only concerned that the music sounds good. This is a great example of getting the job done, "No Matter What!"
