Premium Choral Folder 7-3/4 x 11 Octavo Size with Elastic String Holders - Black

The plastic band on the binding is way too tight by default. I've had to stretch it A LOT for it to be comfortable to wrap around my hand and I'm worried it might tear.Also, the strap at the bottom is kind of annoying. Most music folders have snaps that will allow you to remove it if your sheet music is a little bit taller. I have to fiddle with it and worry about it when I try to turn pages. It gets in the way with my copy of Handel's Alexander's Feast which is basically a book and a little taller and wider than standard sheet music.

Holds several pieces of songs. Strap across bottom holds the music from falling out. And makes it easy to turn the pages. Can hold 80 page cantata easily. Love the gold on each corner.

Anyone who sings the Messiah, or other oratorios, needs this book sized music folder. It is just perfect, especially if you are a soloist. It has a clear handle, clear pockets, strings to hold your music and help the music open to the page that you need. And it also has a pencil holder with an included pencil. Yes, I know that many music folders have these features. But this one does it right, and looks really good doing it. Don't use your big floppy choral folder, when an oratorio sized folder is what you need.

Pay attention to the dimensions (unlike me). It only fits the smaller published music. 8 /12" x 11" does not fit.

Nice, sturdy music cover.

Appropriate for rehearsal and concert. This can hold either one large octovo, or several small individual leaflets. There's a place for your pencil, too. The little ribbon at the bottom makes it incredibly easy to hold, so the joints and muscles in your hands don't suffer much for it. Don't get caught without one of these bad boys in your choir bag!

There are so many Choir folders to choose from. I finally picked this one & I am not disappointed. I sing in a church choir & have used the folder for 2 months before I wrote this review. No issues so far & don't see any happening for a long time. Well made...

Bought this for my father-in-law but realized that this folder was too small for a community chorus music sheets, let alone professional chorus music. The return costs $6 or more depending on where you drop it off, so you don't really get much refund back. I also miss my return period which was only two weeks, unlike other products are like two months. Maybe it was mostly my fault, but if you are looking for a choir folder, make sure you measure the dimensions of all your music sheets or scores.
