Desktop music stands are great for reading music, anthologies, and books when you have limited space in the classroom. If you don’t have the room for an upright stand when practicing or delivering a lesson, these can simply be put on a table or desk so you can still read your sheet music, even when sitting down!

Desktop music stands are perfect for teachers that wish to do classroom activities that involve reading music but don’t necessarily have the time to clear the classroom for full heigh stands. By simply placing them on the students’ desks, you can have them take part in reading sheet music, or even anthologies from the music course to take notes from. 

These stands can be used for some much more. They can also be used for non-musical purposes, such as holding recipe books while cooking or holding academic books for studying, making this tabletop stand a reliable and practical purchase.
