I am set to play Bohemian Rhapsody for an important recital. But, I can't keep all 9 pages of the sheet on the...thing that you put the sheet on. I need some way to do this, I was thinking gluing the sheets to some cardboard or something, but that seems like it would look kinda funky for a fancy recital. Any suggestions? Or should I just practice my page turning :upset: ?

Ahhh.. the dreaded page turning question!
Here's what my professor taught us to do in music school.
1) Photocopy every page. (this is legal since you own the book)
2) Lay the pages side by side 1-9.
3) Tape each page together with scotch tape. All the way down where the pages join.
4) Fold after the 2nd page and after the 6th page. You should have an uneven "M" shape. When you sit down at the piano you'll see the first two pages. When you turn the set, you'll see the next 4 pages. One more turn and you'll see the last 3.
Only two turns. Instead of 4. Experiment with what you like. I've seen some guys put all 9 pages up and slide them over as they go. If you go with my idea.. try taping "grab-tabs" on the edge of the turn page so you wont fumble around.
