Abstract
A device for lifting a page of a stack of pages with a binding or stitching, in particular of a book of music, has a drive for at least one lifting element and a supporting surface for the page. The at least one lifting element is driven in a rotational movement about a drive shaft by the drive via the drive shaft. The drive is mounted such that it can be pivoted about at least one axis of rotation that encloses an acute angle α with respect to the plane of the supporting surface.
