Our local music shop has a pdf-music stand with foot pedal. It has a
touch screen you can write on and remembers 'pencil' marks for each
page. In different colours, I believe. No way I am going to lug that
around.

Cool! :-)

I have a harmonica-style table stand that does the same thing and is
availble in, you guessed it, our local music store. Also available are
foldable hard-paper paper holders, for lack of a better word, that
turn your ordinary music stand in one that will hold 4 pages A4 size
without taping.

Personally, I prefer fast page turning. Play just one opera from the
score (too lazy to copy out the bass with figures, and what solo parts
does one include: just recits or bits of arias as well?) and you'll
beat even David T. I once had a page turner sitting next to me to help
me through a Telemann opera. I was _much_ faster than she was, so she
could make herself useful by preventing the pages from blowing away
(it was an outdoor perfromance) and being pretty (it was my wife).

David - you all saw 'La Tourneuse de Pages'? ... never a page turner in my life!
