I have been playing straight tenor for a while. Yesterday I picked up a large bore tenor with an f attachment. I'm wondering if you folks can recommend any books that assist with incorporating the f attachment into your playing.

Thanks

I think the O. Blume book is pretty decent. Try that one.

Brad Edwards trombone craft is excellent and a huge book for the money! Really covers it well

Make sure it's the one specifically for trombone with F attachments. There's two versions of the same book I think.

The New Method by Aharoni. It's a bass book, but it's what I teach out of also for Tenor trombonists. Very thorough!
