This sentence is an example of combining sentences using gerunds.
'Hearing' is the gerund here. A gerund is a verb that ends with -ing. It is different from the normal verbs since it plays the role of a noun, rather than a verb.
The basic structure in such a sentence is:
- Contains a gerund ('hearing')
- The gerund is preceded by a preposition ('On')
