The Simplest Route to the Tenor Clef – for Tenor Trombone

The modern trombonist is expected to read fluently in both the bass and tenor clefs, but, for many of my students who are bass clef readers, it can be most frustrating when the time to learn the new clef arrives. This usually happens when they need to pass grades 5 and higher and find that they are unable to read even the simplest of melodies in tenor clef.

This book contains seven preparatory exercises – with which it is strongly recommended the instructions are followed – and seven studies to test your new tenor clef reading skills. There are also some short sight reading tests included.
