I think it should be; If a string is vibrating in a vacuum, does it make a
sound?

So it seems the conversation has taken a turn towards Zen philosophy (..if a
tree falls and no one's there to hear it...?)  I'm wondering how deaf, yes
even piano tuners, might take to that description?   You might even wish to
call in Beethoven for counsel on this matter.  What did he consider sound
once he became deaf?  Regardless of which taxonomy is invoked, it all comes
down to music, eventually.
