ABSTRACT:
A mute holder for attachment to a music stand supports several mutes in a convenient manner. A mute is a device placed in the end of a trumpet or similar musical instrument to alter the sound. A number of mutes may be needed in the course of play. The mute holder provides an attachment bracket sized to attach to the support shelf on the music book support portion of a music stand. A preferred attachment bracket includes a retaining strip which is carried adjacent to a top portion of the mute holder. A resilient first bend between the top and retaining strip biases the strip against the top, allowing the bracket to clamp against the support shelf of the music book support. A back wall is attached to a rear edge of the top portion at an angle of approximately 90 degrees. A support plate is attached to the lower edge of the back wall, and is generally parallel to the top portion. The support plate defines one or more holes or openings, each such opening sized to support a similarly sized mute.
