Rehearsing and performing in music ensembles can subject you to high sound levels that can cause permanent damage
to your hearing. The NMU Music Department and faculty urge you to protect your hearing by wearing appropriate protection
(foam ear plugs are provided in the instrumental rehearsal room TFA252), by avoiding excessive and prolonged exposure
to high sound levels, and by reading the following important advisory document:
Protect Your Hearing Every Day!
