Why use a music stand? A good music stand can hold up your violin sheet music and help you maintain proper playing position. It is also a great idea to have a portable music stand so you can take it with you when you play music with friends. Having a desktop stand to use on your table or desk can also be useful, especially if you are sitting while practicing.
Have you ever thought about using a tablet or iPad for your violin music? Many musicians have digitized their sheet music as PDF files, and some also use MusicXML files, giving them access to thousands of musical scores directly from a digital device. One of the most important factors to consider when choosing a digital device is a screen size large enough to read comfortably. Many musicians find a 12-inch or larger screen easiest to read.
Finding the right score reader to manage digitized music is also important. Popular music software for this purpose includes forScore for iOS devices and MobileSheets Pro for Android devices. It is also helpful to have a practical way to turn pages on your device, such as a pedal turner from companies like AirTurn or PageFlip.
