The Buzzing Book by James Thompson
BREATHE&BLOW
This exercise is meant to help students take BIG and RELAXED "WHOE" breaths and make their most beautiful sound on their instrument to start the day. Use this opportunity to remind yourself what it feels like to fill up your lungs with air and fill your instrument with warm and relaxed air.

BASIC WARM-UP [aka The Remington Warm-Up]
This is an excellent chromatic long tone warm-up that gives the player plenty of time to find their best sound on each note and work their way into the low register. This exercise can easily be modified by changing the rhythm from whole notes to quarter notes, eighth notes, sixteenth notes, etc.

BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS [aka The Arnold Jacobs Study]
This flow study is an EXCELLENT way for players to work on their evenness of sound throughout their instrument, melodic playing/phrasing, intonation, and scales. I highly recommend using this exercise as a part of your daily warm-up and routine.
