I know about the Fink and other books...but what about online things? I found a note name quizzer on http://www.emusictheory.com/practice/cNoteNames.html but looking for some introductory etudes. My wife has a bassoon student with a lesson tomorrow...yes, she has some in the Weissenborn book, but they aren't exactly introductory.

Any ideas?

Take a look at this introductory clef study book from Brad Edwards site:

The Trombone Virtuoso by Simone Mantia (Carl Fischer & Sons) is good place to start, with treble clef and tenor introductory studies.

That is, if its still in print.

Mark Heter

Blazhevich Clef Studies is my book of choice. He starts you off with whole note etudes in tenor (and alto) clef.

Good luck.

Allow me to cast a second vote for the Blazevich Clef Studies. I use it for all of my trombone students at the Maryland Conservatory.

I never learned tenor clef. I can read it fine, but I never had to slave over it. As a euphonium player, I learned transposed treble clef pretty early. When it came time to learn tenor clef, all I had to to was think of bass clef key signatures with treble clef fingering, piece of cake.

If you're looking for easy material that will allow the person to learn tenor clef, why not get a trumpet method book and cover the key signatures with tenor clef ones. There is definitely more trumpet material out there than there is tenor clef material. Even for a bassoonist, learning transposed treble clef part might be handy. (Bass clarinet and tenor sax parts). Knowing the relationship between Treble and Tenor is very handy.

A quick look on IMSLP shows that are several methods available free of charge.

Fine and dandy, guys, but I was looking for online things, since I was asking yesterday and the kid's lesson was today. And, I mentioned that I am familiar with books on the topic. But, time was an issue.
Thanks for not a lot of help. I did find a couple of things online.

That's a rude comment to make to people that were trying to help you.

And apparently you're not too "familiar with books on the topic" because the best resources for your situation were mentioned and are available online as PDFs. They're fast and free to download, since "time was an issue". Sorry you couldn't connect the dots.
