ABO publishes new guide on noise for orchestras

The Association of British Orchestras (ABO) today publishes a practical new guide for orchestras who, from 6 April, are required to implement the Control of Noise at Work Regulations 2005.

A Sound Ear II, by Alison Wright Reid and Malcolm Warne Holland,provides orchestra managers with advice on how to minimise hearing damage for musicians along with a unique step-by-step methodology – developed with consultants Arup Acoustics – for measuring the levels of noise to which musicians are exposed during rehearsals and performances.
