A sheet music stand is a device designed to hold music sheets or books at a convenient height and angle for musicians. Typically made of metal or plastic, these stands are adjustable, allowing users to change the height and tilt to suit their needs. They are commonly used by pianists, guitarists, and orchestral musicians during practice or performances. These stands come in various styles, including portable models for easy transport and more robust versions for use in a studio or concert setting. Some stands also feature additional elements, such as built-in lights or storage compartments for accessories like pencils and page clips.
