I recently started to practice Tenorhorn Etude and it's very interesting and helpful , especially with Tempo and fast passage.

Does anyone have similar experience or recommendation?

My recommendation is Brasstrail Euphonium Etude, it has also Demo and Play along , i found out in Youtube.

We have used the Bach Cello Suites as practice material for years.

I've also found bassoon music to have some interesting challenges (usually really wide leaps).

Milde Concert Studies for bassoon.

Lots of free great literature on IMSLP for cello, bassoon, french horn.

I've worked on a couple of things I've posted for free here:

Charlier etudes for trumpet are always fun- worth the time to transpose or read as tenor clef.

This is totally normal, Arbans is a cornet method book and the Bordognis were for voice.

That being said. I like the Dotzauer books, kinda like if the Kopprasch books were even more of a workout

As Aidan and others mentioned, bassoon literature is excellent for challenging your connections throughout a wide range, articulations, flexibility, and precision. Obviously, much like playing literature written for valve instruments, there are some things that the trombone is just not well-equipped to do, so I'd be sure to keep that in mind.

More of a workout than the Kopprasch technical etudes? I worked out of the Kopprasch Opus 6 studies (the Keith Brown edition v 2) and they were a nightmare. I don't want to know any more about it.

BTW, the Kopprasch etudes were originally low horn etudes.

I linked to some of the Charlier that I transcribed for bass trombone, also the Op 10 Concone, which I love. When I got my teaching diploma for trombone/euphonium, I transcribed the Getschell-Hovey etudes I'd learned to love for my previous trumpet students as part of my degree program. That was in the mid 1990's, wish I still had that - I don't have the original print copy, but did buy a PDF version. I might re-transcribe them. Fun pieces.

They feel about the same imo. They’re cello books so breathing is a big battle.

I just auditioned for the Curtis Institute last year and used Charlier 5 as an etude, I highly suggest reading through the Charlier book especially etudes 2 and 5.

Sachse 100 Studies for trumpet and Bona Rhythmic articulation for flute are also great books.

Maxime Alphones horn etudes are neat.

The Bona Rhythmical Articulations are available in bass clef.

Where's is the fun in that? LOL

Thanks for mentioning these Aiden! One of my bassoon-playing classmates in college practiced the Milde studies all of the time. I remember asking for photocopies of a few of them (yes, I am aware that was illegal) and I loved playing them. They are very passionate melodies that glide across multiple octaves. Good stuff! Haven’t thought about these in about 30 years.
