Wearable music holders provide a portable lyre. A collar having a curved portion and two collar side supports is joined to a brace having a brace crossmember and two brace side supports by threaded extensions inserted through collar adjustment holes and brace adjustment holes in the collar side supports and brace side supports, respectively. Wing nuts releasably secure the threaded extensions in place. A crossmember joins the threaded extensions and has the bottom edge of a lyre attached to its middle. A fur collar sleeve encircles the curved portion of the collar, and a fur brace sleeve encircles the brace crossmember. The brace crossmember is sinuous, and except for the sleeves, the wearable music holder is fabricated from aluminum bar stock. The collar's curved portion rests around the wearer's neck, and the brace crossmember rests against the wearer's abdomen in use.
