In reply to Lani Surdukowski. Oh I do love to see comments from old friends. <3 I also like your reaction to it. It's exactly what mine was decades ago when someone showed it to me. Too bad it was after our duet days!

WHERE HAS THIS IDEA BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE?!!! This is absolute genius! Why do all church pianos only allow for 4 pages at a time? It’s so inconvenient. So many times I’ve thrown strands of pages taped together to the floor (this tricked I learned from watching you as we played “My Heavenly Father Loves Me” all those years ago). And don’t get me going on the whole HVAC blowing pages all over the place. My older boys have now been dubbed my official page-turners, much to the dismay of son #2 who is so painfully shy that he all but dies when it’s his turn. LOL!

I tried a solution to where I have the score single-sided on one side of the stand and I would move a page over whenever I was on it. This makes it so I have two pages time to flip the other over! And they use sheet protectors to make flipping easier! Thanks so much for the tip!!

In reply to Tanner DeHaan. Ah yes, the high-tech solution! Costs a bit more, but hey... ;)

iPad Pro with the airturn foot pedal for page turns. Life changing!

HaHa — just as you’ve said — I’m guilty of taping 4 pages together, and when I get to the end I throw this layer on the floor. The next 4 pages are taped together, then these are taped to the piano music stand so that I don’t accidentally throw 2 layers onto the floor. (I’ve never needed more than 8 pages.) I love this 2 binder idea and am converted.

A similar approach is to use an 11×17″ binder. They can be ordered from office supply store web sites along with sheet protectors that fit them.
