ok i think i understand.
let me ask this.
if i am mainly a treble clef reader but know the bass clef notes
wouldn't the CC tubas be easier to me since it is the same
fingerings as a Bb trumpet.i play euphonium for my church in treble clef.
they want a tuba for the low end.but its been 12 years since i played
tuba for school.i have enough trouble now because everyhting from trumpet fingers
to tuba fingerings are running through my head.i play the 1st trumpet melody line
at church and it sounds great but i don't know how they would like the tuba playing
the melody.

thanks for the replies

james
