Wind Lab
The high percentage of wind instrument musicians suffering from an affection related to their instrument's mouthpiece and the extreme difficulty faced when trying to identify the origin of their illnesses have led us to develop, through our Fundació Ciència i Art, new tools and procedures. |

We have new devices, designed and developed at the Institut which allow us, for instance, to mesure the strength and resistance required by muscles when blowing into the mouthpiece; it also shows us lip vibration when playing metallic instruments. New devices, designed and developed at the Institut.Our high definition echography system allows us to investigate possible injuries (scars, ruptures, elongations, etc.) on the artist's mouth muscles. |
