At present (and I'm sure in the future) I play piano and piano accordion using music books. Nearly all are glue bound and impossible to lay flat without pages turning involuntarily. I know all about minimising the effect by flattening at multiple page sets, but I have many books that do not comply. In the past I have had the spine of some books professionally guillotined but I don't want to do this for several dozen books. I plan to weigh down the book and sever the spine using a Stanley knife. I then would spiral bind instead of comb bind as the former allows smoother page transitions. All that said I am confused about the physical size of music books. At 9x12" they are wider and taller than A4 and so I am uncertain which binder punching count to choose. Anyone here done this?
