Music stand
A music stand is a device that holds sheet music in a position that allows the musician to read it while performing. There are various types of music stands. The most common modern type is made of metal and can be folded for ease of transportation. Digital music stands with automated page turning also exist, as well as small stands, called lyre, that can be attached to the instrument itself, as in marching bands. Thomas Jefferson, former president of the United States, invented a revolving music stand. According to ancient Chinese records, music stands have been used since around 200 BC. However, they did not become popular until the late 14th century, when German and Swiss composers decided that they had a certain air of efficiency about them.
