Working on Fluency in Trebble, Need Reccomendation

Sign in to disble this ad
Some time this summer I'm going to a sheet music store to buy a book I need for my school jazz band next year (Store is the director's reccomendation). While I was there, I was thinking I might check out some stuff to help me with my treble clef reading. My treble clef reading is equivalent to going to Germany armed with only a phrasebook. So I was wondering if anybody had any reccomendations for books to pick up while at the store that I could practice my treble clef reading with?

there is a ton of stuff out there....what instrument you will be practicing with would be helpful.....i'd say that books for Bb brass,and reeds would be most plentiful after piano
