Description
In instrumental practice, performance is often synonymous with perfection, and any admission of weakness is taboo. Yet, trauma to the lip region, these invisible blockages resulting from an accident or extreme fatigue, are trials that many trumpet players go through.
This method is designed for amateur musicians, students, and professionals seeking solutions when facing challenging situations, such as post-surgical or post-traumatic rehabilitation (lips, teeth, jaw) or a gradual and effective return to activity after a long interruption (forced break, injury, vacation). The exercises are organized according to a detailed protocol, combining physical and mental work, and are accompanied by practical advice aimed at answering a vital question: how to be reborn artistically when the body is weakened?
