A member asked:
Can piano practice impact your hearing negatively? how to learn piano and practice daily without any adverse effect on your hearing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal Piano playing ranges from 60-70 decibels. Piano Fortissimo ranges from 84-103 decibels. According to the CDC: noise above 70 dB over a prolonged period of time may start to damage your hearing. Loud noise above 120 dB can cause immediate harm to your ears. If your piano has a muting pedal, use it for practice times. If you play a keyboard, lower the volume.
