There is an old saying: if you cannot hear the solo, you are too loud.
In a similar sense, but NHR. I often teach to a large classroom (about 200) of youngsters who do not understand keeping their mouths shut. But they complain if they can't hear. I have to shout just in order to be heard. Or I get amplification, so that they can chatter even louder...
But, you know, they are (mainly) Italians. I imagine that in the anglo-saxon and protestant worlds students are more disciplinated.
