Yep! Music Teachers do suffer gross hearing loss. My husband was a Band Director for over 34 years, and his hearing is definitely a problem. Bear in mind, that he wore ear plugs, which hopefully helped a bit. The job is a very demanding one- both in effort and physical toll. Throw in the fact that it is probably the first subject to be excessed, last to be funded, and one of the most abused, and you have a recipe for a different career choice for newbies...
