Choose the right Manhasset stand

The Symphony is the standard model in the range and a versatile choice for most playing situations. Its solid aluminium desk holds up to 4kg of music, while the heavy-duty steel base provides stability. The Concertino version has a shorter height range, a favourite for seated musicians and younger players. The Tall Symphony extends 30cm higher than the standard model, better suited to standing musicians, double bass players and performances on risers.

For musicians who need additional space for accessories, the Orchestral Symphony adds an extra shelf to the desk for notes or accessories that might be needed during a performance. The Director takes this further with a double-layer desk that provides additional space behind the main music tray, making it useful for conductors, music directors and anyone working with several books or pieces of music. The Fourscore has a much wider desk designed to accommodate four pages of A4 music, making it useful for large scores, landscape-format music and situations where reducing page turns is important.

The Regal combines features from several specialist Manhasset designs. It has the extra-wide desk of the Fourscore, additional storage inspired by the Director and the dual-lip shelf of the Orchestral model. Its two support posts also provide additional rigidity for the larger desk, making it a substantial option for conductors and large scores.

Portable and space-saving options

The Voyager provides a more portable alternative to the traditional Manhasset stand, combining a solid adjustable aluminium desk with a folding base for easier transport and storage, a far more portable option.

The Harmony uses a V-shaped base that allows multiple stands to be stacked together efficiently while retaining the same desk and adjustment system as the Symphony. Compact and stackable, these stands are can be kept around and stored in large quantities.

For situations where a full-height stand is not required, the Tabletop model uses the same style of aluminium desk as the Symphony but is designed to sit directly on a table or other flat surface. It provides a compact option for spaces where floor-standing equipment is not practical.

Individual stands, multipacks and storage

Manhasset stands are available individually as well as in multi-stand packs, making it possible to choose between purchasing a smaller number of stands or equipping an entire music department, ensemble or rehearsal space. Six-packs are available for several models, while selected stands are also available in larger quantities.

For larger installations, Manhasset storage carts provide a dedicated way to rack and move multiple stands. The Symphony storage carts are available in capacities for up to 13 or 25 stands, while the Harmony cart can accommodate up to 15 Harmony stands. The high-density polyethylene rails help protect the stands and its welded steel construction keeps the carts working over a lifetime.

The range also includes accessories such as tablet holders, acoustic shields, stand lights and a music stand lock. These can add functionality to a standard Manhasset stand or adapt it for particular performance and teaching requirements.
