Presentations at the joint IOA Musical Acoustics and the Speech and Hearing Group

On the 9th July 2015 the Institute of Acoustics Musical Acoustics and Speech and Hearing Groups organised a one day meeting at Kingston University. The symposium was entitled, "Hearing impairment and the enjoyment and performance of music". Two papers were presented by the Acoustics Group. Dr Peter Mapp spoke on, "Assistive listening systems for music and speech for hearing impaired listeners". Followed by Dr Stephen Dance on, " A comparison of the hearing acuity of classical music students". The Musical Acoustics Group held their AGM and voted Jemma Jones and Stephen Dance on to the committee. The delegates all then had a long walk home, due to the tube strike!!
