- Marching band flute players reading drill charts and music
- Piccolo players needing hands-free music on the field

Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Concert or seated playing, where a music stand works better
- Instruments other than flute and piccolo
- Players who memorize their marching book
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Clamps to the instrument
Attaches directly to the body rather than to your arm, so the music sits where your eyes already are.
Detail 03
Lyre only
Holds a flip folder. The folder itself and the music are separate purchases.
Detail 04
Marching build
Made to stay put through steps and turns, but it does add weight out at the end of the horn.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01A flip folder is not included and is required to hold the music
- 02Check clamp fit before the first rehearsal, not the morning of a parade
- 03Added weight at the tube end changes balance; practice with it on
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this come with a flip folder?
No. This is the lyre only, the metal frame that clamps to the flute. You buy the flip folder that slides into it separately.
02Will it scratch my flute?
Any clamp on a finished tube can mark it over time. Keep the contact points clean and avoid overtightening. Many players reserve an older horn for marching.
03Does it fit piccolo too?
Yes, it is made for both flute and piccolo.
04Can I use it while seated?
You can, but a music stand holds more pages at a better reading angle. This solves the problem of playing while moving.
