I actually think it helps with projection. When using a music stand, you can put it much lower so that the sound goes over it. When you sit, you may also have the music pretty low, but standing up gives you an additional benefit; the stand can be even lower and you can physically bend down if you have trouble reading a section. As for moving around - I've never gotten a complaint from anyone saying that it was inappropriate but, as I mentioned in a previous post, many folks have told me how much they enjoy watching my "dancing" even though I don't do it consciously.
