To supplement all those boring etudes and studies in late nineteenth-century romantic style, I read some pieces from fake books (treble clef, "C instrument"). It's a lot of fun, and they make good practice duets: one player plays the melody and the other player plays a bass line based on the chord symbols and the melody. This is not only good instrument training, it is good musical training.

To answer your second question, I did download the old Brassworld scales, arpeggios and fingering charts. The complete ZIP archive is about 807K, and contains bass clef scales, treble clef scales, bass clef arpeggios and fingering charts. These are very good quality.

I would prefer to only send it to someone who can put it on a web site rather than use my limited bandwidth to send it to a lot of individuals. Any takers?
