Classical Musicians are more Prone to Hearing Loss than Rock Musicians

It’s true. 

Classical music turns out to be more dangerous to your hearing health, than rock music. Even though classical music is not blasted at loud volumes that can shake an arena, on average, classical musicians play four to five hours each day. They are either practicing, teaching, or performing multiple times per week. The intensity of sound may be louder on the set of a rock  concert, but the number of hours each week that is spent playing is much greater for a classical musician.  

So to all classical musicians, take this into consideration. Reduce the amount of time spent playing your instrument, or wear hearing protection.

If you are a musician who is experiencing hearing loss, please contact us at Pure Sound Hearing Aids for a free hearing test and consultation.
