My wife is a professional pianist who plays solo recitals as well as concertos and some chamber music. I want to set her up with a tablet or something similar that she can use during herperformances and rehearsals. I am searching around but nothing has struck me as the ideal solution.
I can't stand Apple products so an IPAD is not under consideration. I wonder though if the typical tablet screen size is comfortable for reading piano sheet music. A friend did show us what sheet music looked like on an IPAD and it seemed far from ideal.
On the other hand, she doesn't want anything really heavy and bulky that she has to lug around. So perhaps this is a catch 22 situation?
What experience do people here have that read from a device at the piano? I'm really in need of suggestions and recommendations. The Mobilesheets software looks like the software answer once I can get the right hardware.
Thanks a lot.
