I haven't seen one, but that doesn't mean they haven't been done. The problem with the couple of studies I've seen is that either they were done from points of view that were biased to begin with, looking to validate already held beliefs, or they were done by non-musicians with no apparent input from anyone who actually knew how wind instruments are played.

Poking the end of a clarinet into a box to measure the volume and direction of droplets and aerosols coming from the bell is a total waste of time producing meaningless results unless the part you're playing is all low E3 and B4.

It seems true that I haven't heard of mass infections among bands and orchestras that have started up again the way I was reading about singers 19 months ago going down by the dozens in their church choirs. Maybe the difference is singing vs. instruments or maybe it's because most organizations now seem to be requiring members to be vaccinated.
