Musaf before Kriat haTorah?

Hi,

A synagogue may recite the musaf amidah before reading from the Torah [on Shabbat or Yom Tov], if there is a particular, significant need, such as where the person who will read from the Torah is not yet available, and they are concerned about straining the community by waiting for him to proceed. However, we try to keep to the normal order. Therefore, the community should not do this on an on-going basis; other remedies should be sought.

(Rivivot Ephraim 1:219:2)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
