For those piano teachers, like myself, who travel round..do you think pianos with poor dampers, i.e. that ring on after raising the key, are damaging our ears? Couple this with the loudness and exposure time and I believe, yes it is. I have been suffering with tinnitus for over 6 months now and its as though I hear this ringing sound in my ears. Should we insist on teaching on properly dampened pianos?
