Introducing the Musisca aluminium folding music stand

Designed with portability, practicality and strength in mind, the MUSISCA17 aluminium music stand is the perfect companion for musicians on the move. Whether you're gigging regularly, rehearsing ensembles, or practicing at home, this stand is built to meet your needs with style and reliability.

Its compact folded size of just 54.5cm makes it a space-saving solution in classrooms, rehearsal spaces, or on the road. It’s great for schools and orchestras that need to keep an orchestra's worth of stands in a storage box, and for solo musicians looking to minimise their carrying load.

With the discontinuation of the popular RAT Scherzo stand, this Musisca model is now a clear choice for those seeking an almost identical stand. At just 740g it's even made in the same factory as the RAT Scherzo2 was. The lightweight frame and supplied carry-bag make transport effortless, while the durable aluminium construction ensures it stands up to regular rehearsals and performances.

Fast, flexible, and fuss-free

The MUSISCA17 features intuitive, ergonomic quick-release clamps and buttons, letting you adjust height and angle easily—even with one hand. Whether you’re seated or standing, it offers full flexibility, extending as high as 140cm. Spring-loaded sheet holders keep your music firmly in place, even during awkward page turns or breezy outdoor performances.

Professional look, solid performance

With a high-quality matte black powder-coated finish, this stand looks clean and smart in any setting. It's at home on stage, in the pit, or in a school hall. An impressively wide desk surface (48.5cm x 23.5cm) supports everything from sheet music to books and folders, and its stability is a match for heavier loads too. Crucially, the legs fold out widely to create a sturdy base for the stand, making it well balanced; it's reliable even in busy areas where it might get a few knocks and bumps.

Ready to go, wherever you play

Included with the MUSISCA17 is a protective carry bag with a built-in handle, making it even easier to transport. The bag protects the stand and keeps everything together, helping to make the MUSISCA17 an essential accessory for mobile musicians of all kinds—from students and teachers to gigging pros. Not only is it one of the lightest, but also one of the best value folding music stands on the market.
