Abstract Music students are not being taught that music is a sound source capable of harming hearing. Ensemble directors of public school and college bands, orchestras, and choirs, are unaware and unprepared to recognize and manage risk from excessive sound exposures. Schools of music and conservatories around the world, and the organizations that accredit them, need to embrace the idea that schools of music are best suited to facilitate change, conduct research, create and impart knowledge, institute competency, and most importantly, cultivate a culture of responsibility and accountability throughout the music discipline. By drawing attention to actions pursued at and through the College of Music at the University of North Texas, the purpose of this paper is to encourage change and to assist others in efforts to reach the best conditions for preventing irreversible hearing disorders associated with music. Sumario A los estudiantes de m?sica no se les ense?a que la m?sica es una fuente de sonido capaz de da?ar la audici?n. Tanto los directores de conjuntos musicales en las escuelas p?blicas preparatorias, como los directores de bandas, orquestas y coros en las universidades no est?n preparados para identificar y manejar los riesgos a una excesiva exposici?n al sonido. Las escuelas de m?sica y los conservatorios alrededor del mundo as? como las organizaciones que las acreditan necesitan entender que las escuelas de m?sica son las instituciones m?s adecudas para facilitar cambios, conducir investigaciones, crear y difundir conocimiento, establecer est?ndares, y lo m?s importante, cultivar una cultura de responsabilidad y auto regulaci?n en todos los campos de la m?sica. Usando las estrategias que se recomendaron, dise?aron, e implementaro en o a trav?s del College of Music, Univeristy of North Texas, el prop?sito de este trabajo es impulsar el cambio y ayudar a otros para alcanzar mejores condiciones que puedan prevenir trastornos irreversibles auditivos associados con la m?sica. |
