This is a subject I haven't seen. I was going through some of my old etude and studies books I had when I was in college 20 years ago and I was wondering what students are using now. This is a list of some of the books, etudes and music I played when I was in college. I would like to see what everybody else is playing now days so I might expand my own library. I don't have the chops to play some of this now but I'm getting there.

Blazhevich Studies (vol. 1 and II)
Kopprash (sp?) studies.
Etudes for Tuba, Walter Sear
Sonata for Tuba and Piano, Walter Hartley
Concerto for Bass Tuba and Orchestra, R Vaughan Williams
Sonate, Paul Hindemith
Hal Leonard Advanced Band Method - I like the Special Studies by Arnold Jacobs
Duet for Flute and Tuba, Walter S Hartley

I had tons of other material and exerpt books but I don't know what happened to all of it. I would like to build my library back up again.

What are some of your favorite brass quartet and quintet music? I like the stuff by the Canadian Brass myself. The charts are expensive but they are fun to play. I'm looking for some new stuff to play in church.
