N2 - The widespread adoption of digital sheet music by performers in recent years appears promising, yet not without limitations. While enhancing interactivity and convenience, a persistent challenge remains: the act of turning pages while musicians' hands are engaged on the piano keys. To investigate perceived user experience of page turning in digital sheet music, we conducted a controlled laboratory experiment with fifteen participants (N = 15), comparing five state-of-the-art page turning modalities. The results revealed that hands-free modalities were generally preferred over touch-based modalities, with head gestures showing promise as hands-free alternatives to foot pedals, particularly in terms of perceived efficiency, attractiveness, stimulation, and novelty.
